No, and trust me, you wouldn't want to. Black and white is fine on paper because the paper isn't shining the white into your eyes, unlike a computer monitor. The black works because your eyes aren't being bombared by the bright white of your computer monitor. Give it a chance if you haven't already, you'll get used to it and finally understand that it's a better choice for design anyway.

yeah, that's why if you've ever4 been to Maddox's website you'll see the same reason, and I would not want it changed, because the forums especially require reading,a nd for some of us who are at the grade 2 level (myself included) it can hurt the eyes.

I agree that dark on light is better... maybe not black on white, but dark grey or black on light grey or some other color.

The only thing you could do, if you know any css is to write a custom style sheet for the site and use a browser which allows you to override site css.

Chris said ( i think) that this would be fixed in the next launch.
