Is having an easy way to do color changes (e.g. with a button) a highly desired feature? And what colors would be good to explicitly list?

It never seemed to me that people were all that interested in color (save, of course, graping things for fun).

Did you do that in one try? 😃 Thanks, I’ll have to invest a little playtime with that. I saw the original mathjax thread but only read a little bit, what with all the math nerds clogging up the thread with stuff I didn’t understand.

Speaking just for me, I wouldn’t really have a use for it. I’m not sure I’ve ever used it.

Yep, even when we had it posters didn’t use it a lot. I’m fine with having colors available here because I don’t have to worry about posts with 500 different colors and flashing gif messages.
