: : Hummmmm, very good idea, to do something about the board. The 'stonlike' image is kind of good too, but, there is a but
: : The white background is only a problem on screens because it it to bright. The brighness can be adjusted on the design of the board
: : AND - more important - on each and everyones screen. That is where the major problem with the eye-health is. TOO bright screens

: : Black background and white letters, will be very much against the human design of the eyes. And that to will be damaging in the healthcare of the eyes. There is only one way to avoid this, and that is HUGE, BOLD letters
: : and that is not very practical for us - is it ?
: : - So my advice is; light colored background, black letters.

I didn't try to insist on my layout or colour scheme. The purpouse of the proposition was to make Ladonians aware of the dangers the screen can hold. So I will gladly vote FOR a slightly darker, pleasanly-coloured background.
I think I'll put it on the Parliament's agenda for discussion.
