I am sorry, it is difficult to explain with my English.
I can give example: if you have a picture with the sky and the sun.
Sun will be #FFFFFF, sky will be grey that go to #FFFFFF smoothly.
This sun on the pictire can can easyly brake you eyes when you look at this
picture (this is effect of contrast I think).
The same effect we have with new BackEnd skin.

May be you are right ( I do not know this desing/colors staff)

Goog idea. This will be ideal solution, but this will reqre more job from
developers of skin.
