I am tired of staring at this combination of green and light blue day in and
day out.

I am SURE I am not alone on this.

Hey, don't get me wrong, both colors are nice. But the combination is odd, and
the permanence of it; it is so mind-numbingly persistent I can't take it anymore.

We already have the option to choose background colors in our storefront. I suggest
implementation of the option, when logged in to your account, of being able to
set general site background colors.

Right now as I type this suggestion I have the green and light blue in my face,
right now, laughing at me, mocking me. I need to change the color or I may go
crazy lol.

Since the green and light blue is apparently the long term, time-tested, tried
and true official popularly recognized colors of Bricklink it would still be
there when not logged in (and for all those people who never set their own color).
But can we please have the option to change these colors!? PLEASE

I am partial to shades of brown and soft warmer tones like orange.
Can't... take... all this... green... anymore... ehhhh (gasp, fall on floor).

There is meaning to the blue above green. Hint: admins see brown.

That is SO unfair, brown is my favorite color! lol

Now it is guaranteed I cannot get it. Unless we get the option to change the
green part. And it's the green part that is so obnoxious to me. I wish I could
change it from time to time. Of course, text color on the page would need to
be changeable too so that it contrasts the background.

Would be nice.

Very nice.

Thanks. The black is a definite improvement. Don't know how I missed that. Too
bad there are only 3 options.

Now about all that green...
