1) optimized browsers

3) header bars, icons, dates, etc just add to an eye strain on a white background. it's a usability nono for message boards.

Look at a text-editor like MSWord and then this forum. You can't honestly tell me that it gives off the same eye strain.

I'm being dead honest, and not whiny, but I have a very hard time reading this forum now because of the white. I TOTALLY appreciate the work that went into changing it, and love that its all in one place now, but to me, this site is first and foremost a forum -- and one that I've been using for ~10 years.
