I've noticed this complaint is pretty common so I just made a thread about it.
Example:
Code:
[16:43:22]  the new look is actually give me a headache, I'm not joking
[16:43:32]  MY EYES MY EYES
[16:43:37]  I had to close out
[16:43:47]  *giving
[16:43:53]  its not easy for my eyes too lol
[16:43:57]  but possible
[16:44:02]  It
[16:44:03]  contrast between colours is shit
[16:44:05]  too much clutter
[16:44:05]

I second the motion that we need a darker theme. This bright new look is gonna make browsing in darkness/night quite troublesome.
I don't want to be rude or a grammar cop (okay, yes I do), but since this may actually affect you in real life I'll correct you.

It's notion, not motion.

Good to see I'm not alone in thinking this new theme is too bright...

Also agreed that a dark version (or even just a darker white version) is needed.

EDIT: Just realized there was a typo...

I wouldn't mind a darker theme too, but not due to my own complaints about brightness.
It doesn't look much different to before, as far as I'm aware.

Grammar cops have to be right.
Motion is actually valid in this case.

I know, but notion is more correct!

EDIT: Seriously though, I noticed it was right about 5 seconds after I posted. I guess I was both right and wrong, but when you mix the words they both come out sounding like each other, so I'll just go with wrong.

    @The Real Jdbye, I thought about that and I have blank DVD's and Blurays but honestly after like 90 songs I just listen to it a couple of hundred times toss it out and burn something else or have like 2-3 CD's. Florida here the heat in the car tends to ruin the CD's after like a few months even commercial pressed ones don't last too long.
