actually – all of you are wrong.

the highest contrast ratio is red on white – this is why jet fighters and racing mototbikes had this instument theme.

personally, i use a dark ubuntu theme and wallpaper on my ubuntu machine. not because of the 5 reasons just pointed out, but because it is easier on a computers processor and allows the computer to execute code at a faster and better performing rate :). because as it is obviously said before, your processor makes up for every individual color pixel on your screen. with that said. the processor is not as stressed with one single color, and black being one

All people deserve very good life time and mortgage loans or just credit loan will make it better. Just because freedom bases on money.

I agree with you Ben, I like balance. All dark is too much and too light can hurt your eyes. I hope some genius design pops up soon and Ubuntu adds it as the default, though I’m getting a little concerned.

Not to say the current is terrible, its very usable and basic. At some point though if you want to become mainstream you have to achieve a mainstream look and feel..

Everyone’s fighting both sides. It’s crazy.
Bright colours are a little tougher on the eyes, dark colours aren’t much better. What’s wrong with some balance? My monitor is Black by default. I like middling colours of low hue for controls (since seeing it on Mac) and I also like bright paper.

Comments please on my current desktop – I can’t change it a great deal, except sometimes I go for caramel menu’s…

Try to ignore the desktop background. Black is nice, wood (ibex mockup style) is cool too. Greys look smart and professional – and I get less headaches, and waste less time thinking about my interface than I used to.

I am glad that ubuntu didn’t satisfy me off the bat – now my desktop is unique – as are most people’s.

In case you’re interested, my basic theme was OSV (which has issues of being too dark, but colours can be adjusted. GTK theme is SUNDAY. Oddly with ‘brown/gold’ glassy buttons, which really grow on you!
