I tried this for a while but couldn't get a meaningful *and* pleasing
*and* easy-to-read combination of colors.  After a while it just
bugged me and I wound up ditching scoring altogether.  At any rate,
here's the code I used:

;; trying different faces for different scores

(copy-face 'default 'my-gnus-face-50)
(set-face-foreground 'my-gnus-face-50 "gray50")

(copy-face 'default 'my-gnus-face-55)
(set-face-foreground 'my-gnus-face-55 "gray55")

(copy-face 'default 'my-gnus-face-60)
(set-face-foreground 'my-gnus-face-60 "gray60")

(copy-face 'default 'my-gnus-face-65)
(set-face-foreground 'my-gnus-face-65 "gray65")

(copy-face 'default 'my-gnus-face-70)
(set-face-foreground 'my-gnus-face-70 "gray70")

(copy-face 'default 'my-gnus-face-75)
(set-face-foreground 'my-gnus-face-75 "gray75")

(copy-face 'default 'my-gnus-face-80)
(set-face-foreground 'my-gnus-face-80 "gray80")

(copy-face 'default 'my-gnus-face-85)
