Hmmm, I had to start up my WinXP computer and change to the
Windows XP theme and Standard color scheme - and what do I get?

 Blue!

Blue background color, blue task bar, blue/green buttons for
open applications, blue frames in windows, blue title bar,
selected menu items have blue background... The base color is
definitly blue, wouldn´t you agree?

And most of the colors I get from icons (and symbols) of all
kinds. Except some colors to highlight the Start button (green)
and the Close buttons (red).

I'll start up my Linux KDE GUI tomorrow to see what it looks
like there...


But if you don´t like the idea of one base color, couldn´t you
make two different color schemes? One with one base color and
one with the three Typo3 ones? Or write in the manual how to
easily change the colors? Please!?!
