Blue is calming. It can be strong and steadfast or light and friendly. Almost everyone likes some shade of the color blue.

Red is hot. It's a strong color that conjures up a range of seemingly conflicting emotions from passionate love to violence and warfare.

calm ----> violent. That's how. :p

Okay... but it still doesn't explain why people are having physical pain in their eyes. It's not like their CRT or LCD monitors are suddenly putting out additional lumens, at least not enough to cause pain.

Unless you're arguing that an "agressive" color scheme is making people violent enough that they're punching themselves in the eyes. It must be pretty dangerous to be near Eric while he's online now! :eek:

Either way, I just numbed-out the pure white from #FFFFFF to #F7F7F7, and the #F5F5F5 panels to #F0F0F0... how's that?

I like it slightly darker like this. Much better.

Silly Ozzie, color doesn't have a 'u' in it.

Anyways...
