?? I'd let this go but 
1) I am serious in that it was a surprise and quite disturbing to see suddenly 
dark, 
red and estranged appearance to the web pages (unfortunately I checked here and 
not
in developer@ since here are held the general illumos discussions) 
2) It was in no way directed at Joshua and if he took offense, I sincerely 
regret
any misinterpretation  
3) As for what followed perhaps a different wavelength was being watched than 
here 
but the real concern was put to rest in a matter of minutes. (Thanks again!) 
4) Although the technical platform certainly evolves to solve problems 
(naturally, hence the upgrade), 
it is unfortunate that aesthetically the 'theme' is seemingly non configurable 
for the user.

Users naturally resist change and user interfaces should be very careful about 
certain
fundamentals that while perhaps anodyne for some, others may find annoying or 
distasteful.

This is why outside of blank screen, there are very few universal non 
configurable graphical 
interfaces. Ah, I forgot, I have a custom screen saver;-)

This may be an interesting read:
