Yeah, I think this has more to do with the color-addition *being very ugly* than it does with the addition of color. The pink gradient isn't that bad, I hardly notice it anymore, but the random number pattern is basically hideous. -- The "Million Style Manual" is a set of sixty-four jade stones marked with pieces of Chinese characters.
