I tend to like soft brown colors like beige...they are often easier on my eyes. Sometimes white background can be a little "bright"...I like something like light browns and soft yellows together. They seem to be easier on my eyes.

...and use reduced saturation on the colors too.

Yeah...that was what I meant by "soft" colors.


When I used to work on X-Window machines under Unix/Solaris in school this was often the color scheme I chose. I have made similar themes on my work pc like this and used it often too.

flex22,

You put a W2K or WXP screen shot in the Windows 95/98/ME thread -

seeing as the bottom is one color, just go into your control panel, display, and choose a better scheme.
