The color scheme of the site is not dark. -Navbar should be of class navbar-inverse -Body background-color should be a little less dark than the navbar -Consider dark blue or bright green colors for the items in the navbar with similar hover colors -Has anyone considered changing the navbar color to a very dark blue or something else? What do you think?

I found this great place with Bootstrap templates that look awesome. It's called BootsWatch. I picked three templates that I really liked. Check them out. I think they can really help us improve the look of the tool. http://bootswatch.com/cyborg/ http://bootswatch.com/darkly/ http://bootswatch.com/slate/ There is also another great place called PaintStrap that lets you auto-generate themes based on your color preferences (it's worth checking out if you want to tweak your own theme).

Make the entire website as wide as the screen, so that the background is not seen at all.

The background of the active item in the navbar should be have darker shade of green. Also, all items in the navbar should a "bottom-border: 3px solid #somegreen;". Make sure that the navbar stays the same height! Otherwise it gets all buggy.

@jackzhch Please create a special CSS class for the top section of the page in Library which will be darker. We can use this same class for other pages like Browse, etc.

All horizontal lines under H1 elements should be green, as well as left-lines for blockquotes.
