Esteban thats look great to me, I would have gone as far as turing the background of text editor to pitch black but even this theme is more than fine for me. So yes it will be wise to post your code to smalltalkhub and let us help you out with this. I am most certainly be interested to contribute , dark themes are essential to my coding workflow.�

Sven its not so much about brightness, I find white as color, tiresome , especially when I read text. The curios thing is that my eyes get strained only with the white on screen and not on paper, I always have my brightness at lowest level. But in the end, black is my color. A drak theme is better because its not just a lower lightness thing its also the correct contast at least for my eyes.�

About icons its a valid concern, but not a big deal for me right now. Pharo needs a good theme support, my project will hopefully bring this to the table but it will take me a lot of time to get there.�

btw... my goal is to achieve this:

(as Phil suggested some time ago, in a thread which was the reason I started to try a dark theme).

Also... my intention is to contribute to clean a bit morphic by removing silly hardcode stuff and creating a separation betweek "skin" and "morph"... and more important, to easy the creation of new skins.

�but I still do not find a design that satisfy me... we'll see.
