OK, how about your color scheme except that we replace darkslategray with cyan4 as my eyes have a hard time distinquishing between black and slate gray? I can't comment on the light gray for the dark background as I can't figure out how to invert my video. As for uncached, well I'd been reading too many old articles suggesting that the cache and agent should be merged. Personally, I also prefer uncached as a word than undownloaded or unfetched. If anyone wants to try an alternative color scheme, here's one: (defface gnus-summary-high-uncached-face '((((class color) (background light)) (:bold t :foreground "cyan4" :bold nil)) (((class color) (background dark)) (:bold t :foreground "LightGray" :bold nil)) (t (:inverse-video t :bold t))) "Face used for high interest uncached articles.") (defface gnus-summary-low-uncached-face '((((class color) (background light)) (:italic t :foreground "cyan4" :bold nil)) (((class color) (background dark)) (:italic t :foreground "LightGray" :bold nil)) (t (:inverse-video t :italic t))) "Face used for low interest uncached articles.") (defface gnus-summary-normal-uncached-face '((((class color) (background light)) (:foreground "cyan4" :bold nil)) (((class color) (background dark)) (:foreground "LightGray" :bold nil)) (t (:inverse-video t))) "Face used for normal interest uncached articles.")
