  1. Hello.

    I try this on and off with every new distribution release, and it always leaves me annoyed. A host of applications will make presumptions about either the font colour or the background colour but not the other.

    Actually, I should try it again and this time actually file bugs ๐Ÿ™‚

    Good luck.

  2. That’s rather nice. Where does the wallpaper come from? What is the theme you use? Can we also see what the windows look like? Am I bothering you with all my questions ๐Ÿ™‚ ?

  3. The first problem you’ll hit is that, hopefully, your browser respects your desktop settings…. except nobody’s web sites do.

    CSS that hard codes the text to black, but does not touch the background-color. Uh oh!
