Hi Dominic,
I'd urge caution in the choice of colours since they can interact badly with themes. Keeping the current muted colours is better IMO. A dark background with light text is significantly different to most other pages and so is likely to be a surprise to most users. And I got totally over green text terminals back in 1975 ;-)
Note to those who still get a white background on the Geany homepage, I had to apply a theme (even if it was supposed to be the default for my distribution) before the background went grey. Firefox bug, gnome bug, who knows??
Cheers Lex

Another suggestion - a black background with white (or green) text.
Bad idea IMHO.
Well, black background and green font doesn't actually represent Geany that much. I like the idea of Milan with coloring the padding areas in gray. But I'm thinking of using a Tango color, e.g. #eeeeec for that, since the Geany icon on the top left is also realized with Tango colors afaik.
What do you guys think about that?
Regs, Dominic
