Scott,

Please keep in mind that when I made the changes, I kept the same color 
scheme and appearance as was used prior to my revisions:

https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Home?action=recall&rev=186

This was a decision made by the community-at-large prior to my work. 
Please know that your input is important.  If you are concerned with the 
current appearance, you are welcome to join the documentation team to 
assist us:
