Sorry to hear that. They look quite attractive to me!

They are from a standard Mercurial stylesheet, which says (inter alia)

   .parity0 { background-color: #f0f0f0; }
   .parity1 { background-color: white; }

and we'd have to change the first line to

   .parity0 { background-color: white; }

(or maybe a less deep grey).
(or even a pale green, for those of us who remember lineprinters!)

But I don't know how to do that, especially on Sourceforge (they haven't
been receptive to similar style suggestions in the past).
