I get where you're coming from and I appreciate the feedback. I have to take everyone's feedback into consideration and it's not uncommon to have at least a fair % of people who aren't pleased with a given design. Having said that, if the theme is just painful to read for a reasonable subset of users, it needs to be changed. I like to do things democratically so maybe we can do up a few prototypes and call a vote if we can't sufficiently improve the existing one.

I'm still having trouble with the wallet on my mac. I'm not trying to mine, just trying to have a wallet so I can store the coins I've purchased but it crashes every time I try to open it.  I did download from the official darkcoin site. Here is the crash report. I'd really like to buy some more DRK but I'm hesitant to do so until I know I have a place to store it off an exchange.

'preciate it. I kicked the text contrast down another notch -- let me know if it helped. I can go further until we get to some kind of equilibrium of user happiness!

I always need to do it as sudo or root, that might be the problem, I left it out in case your system doesn't require it. Oh, and look again, I updated it. 

You're right, submit page does need work, good points.

I'm having trouble with every pool, including p2p.  Got 5 pools in my config and can't mine at the rate my miner is capable of. It's locked onto the p2p pool but I get constant "Pool 0 is not providing work fast enough" and fluctuating hash rates averaging a little over half what it should be.  The p2p was down completely for a couple of days and prior to that it did work well for me.  It's back up now but not working like it did before.

It definitely helped but the light text on dark background is still rough for me.

For me it was the driver, I use 13.11 beta 9.5 from Guru3D.com for my 7950's (~1.7 MH). Also limit your commands to see if it works, then add more and test.
