5.0 colors

A lot of people have been complaining about how "dark" the new site is. Personally, I find it too bright rather than too dark, but I've found it so through the last few updates and was given a user-side solution some time back. I use Chrome, so someone pointed me to the Stylish addon and someone else wrote me the code for it, and since that time my RpN has been a lovely shade of gray-purple instead of brilliant white. However, that purple doesn't mesh well with the new blue (which looks teal on my screen), so I fiddled around with colors until I found a new shade to work with.


Long story short (too late!), I offer #bcd7ea as a background color. It's not very dark, but it is a distinct blue, matching the existing blues, and breaks up individual sections nicely.


As an example, here's what my RpN looks like at the moment:


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2015_11/57a8c5e621c0a_CaptureRpNblue.JPG.6798a59097f00b71c50fabbbe9ce78d2.JPG" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="87583" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2015_11/57a8c5e621c0a_CaptureRpNblue.JPG.6798a59097f00b71c50fabbbe9ce78d2.JPG" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>

Another color-related suggestion: could new threads, threads with new posts, or sections with either of these be a different color instead of just bold? The bold isn't very bold and doesn't stand out as well as a different color would.
