Nope.
 
Mercury, so I can put the glasses down and relax my eyes
(brightness makes pupils smaller and increases sharpness)

Well - in the same way your car's dash lighting gives you a night time dim setting, and your GPS gives you night time colours (darker hues, lower brightness) - it really depends on your studio ambient lighting. I use small pot lights and under desk and rack lighting in a dark studio. Mercury in that environment is like a spotlight.

So - yep. (LOL)

I have the patience, just not really the time. I currently just use the Mercury theme.

Custom theme user here.    Like Mike mentioned above, which theme I'm using depends on my mood/conditions.  The mostly Tungsten based....

I appreciate the effort of people building and sharing themes with others, I've tried them all. Then I went back to Mercury and this is where I feel most comfortably.

I like having the editor, but... to make it really useful it will need a lot of work like separating colors that are grouped, adding more areas to change, and better naming for some items.

I finally tweaked a theme I like personally... don't know where to upload for sharing... as I don't have a drop box acct or whatever..
Here's a quickie vid of the transport.  Tried (but not authentic, of course) to make it look like lights, and added the script to the buttons...
 

I'm using Polar Blue (SteveC).
 
Really nice job.
 
 

Always use themes.

Guys, i wasn't here for a bit, but i have a question. Is it possible now to bind clip background color to track color, or only foreground?

Hello all,
 
I am currently making a Sonar theme that I call Iceberg. I found a nice iceberg picture, extracted the colors to make my own custom color palette and used this palette in the theme.
 
I've changed about 80% of the items in the theme editor (didn't change anything related to ProChannel), so almost everything is customized, not only the track panel or the console. Unfortunately, due to lacks in the theme editor, there are some things I cannot change (or don't know how to change).
 
Here's what it looks like:

 (right-click and open it in a new window or tab to enlarge it to its full size)
 
Let me know what you think.
I'm using it most of the time and find it rather smooth to the eye.
 
And here's the photograph on which the colors are based:

 
Please note that I'm using the French version of Sonar, that's why some texts are in French :-)
