New It's not really a matter of Color...
... It's more a matter making sure the floor in underneath my feet.

I play FP shooters that rock my world or anyone's for that matter. I play Zero *G* games and all too. Never loose my sense of the horizon... But for some reason... I just can;t seem to not feel a bit nauseus with all the movement and animations and other such eye-candy.

The layout is bar-none the best *DEAL* I've seen... I use very similar things in GNOME and FluxBox... but they don;t make me feel queasy... I can;t put my finger on it... something just makes me woozy. Even with the 3840x1200 desktop I had... wasn;t enough to launder that feeling. Could have been a refresh problem... active TFT Display.

It was something like the fluid movement... like when you are using a rubber band to move everything... a slight bit behind your expectations... but wasn;t a response issue... it was "deliberate" settings or something. It's not a matter of the interface being bad or what... just that me being who I am I have certain tendancies... this is one I didn't expect. Maybe that's why.
