"I tried that bottom-of-page gray earlier and the "Enter name or symbol" was a lot harder (for me) to see."

Oh, yeah. I hadn't noticed that. LOL

Guess I can trial-and-error it to see what looks best

Yeah, I guess you could do that. I guess by trial and error one could build SI from scratch as well, huh?

Dood, did I hear you say you have some color perception challenges to overcome? Sure I did. And you've decided that on top of migrating SI from UNIX to Windoze you're gonna master this as well:

Damn the handicap, like overnight?

OK. You 'da boss. Me? Been trying to figure out color for, oh, a quarter of a century or so and it's still a mystery to me, but hey, go for it! (g)

P.S. The Most Obvious Hint, again, and for the last time: Kevin, or Mr.B.

Look what I found!

davestrains.com

Now, even being colored blind, you can read what the colors are!

Have fun! Good Luck,
Joe

Suggestion: Look at the far upper right corner.
You see (I see) a scrunched-up si_guys.gif and just to the left of that I see:
Portfolio
Onbox
SubjectMarks
PeopleMarks


"Inbox, SubjectMarks, & PeopleMarks" are also under Message Boards; "Portfolio" isn't.

Portfolio may be on it's way out. Why do we need the rest in two places? Isn't once enough?
It is to me.

Suggestion:
Remove the text from the corner area and THEN let the si_guys.gif be opened up (wider) so it's more natural and NOT all scrunched up. If "Portfolio" is needed, add it to the list under "Messaage Boards".

(and we wouldn't have to worry about what color to make them <g>)

I actually like the dark gray main body of the header a LOT. It also let's you keep the Go button light gray. I could see change the little frame line around Enter a symbol to the same blue as the word Silicon, likewise the words Portfolio Inbox Subjectmarks Peoplemarks. That would get rid of the last of the puke yellow, a high priority IMO.
