I did, so I apologize for beating you over the head... just so long as
it sticks! ;-) As you may have noticed people ignoring users' color
schemes is a bit of a pet peeve (since I tend toward colors that usually
cause problems when people do this :-)).

Yes, I did eventually realize what you were talking about here. I could
do a mock-up (or heck, maybe The Real Thing) of a better version if you
are interested. Are you? :-) Anything *I* would do would be done in
code, so any screenshots I would produce as a result would be The Real
Thing, rather than mock-ups made with image editors.
