You're not the only one. I appreciate the appearance from an aesthetic standpoint but it only takes 30 seconds or so for the "burn-in" effect to happen, and I start seeing horizontal stripes everywhere.

When stuck working on Windows my consoles get switched to black-on-white.

Otherwise I'm a perfectly normal person who enjoys cilantro.

It's really easy on the eyes late at night and early in the morning.

Not for people over a certain age.. I'm never getting those nights and mornings back. :) It's really just retina-searing, sorry.

Other color options would be most welcome.

I don't know if I'm just used to it, but I really like HN's background color.
