I absolutely LOVE your software, and I find it to be the best PIM software available for Window 7.  The only thing that bothers me is I absolutely HATE the Vista "Puke" Blue default background.

Most of your Internet Ads mention SKIN ability on your new version, in addition to your mentioning here it in your website help notes more than once. However, after searching and searching through your software options with a fine tooth comb, it appears that this horrible default blue is the only background option.

I hope I'm mistaken, would you be so kind as to tell me how to change the background to anything other than Vista Blue.  Now that I'm using Windows 7 [which I love] I really don't need any reminders of my Vista nightmare on my brand new quad tower. 

Best Regards,
Michael

Michael,
Not sure about the background color, but you can change the font and background for each record based on priority.  You have to click on the priority flag in the task pane header, select, then create a new setting which responds to your priority setting.
You change priorities by clicking the icon witht the flag+up arrow or flag+down arrow.  Hope this helps.

Thank you for responding.  Yes, I understand that I can assign the colors for the panels on top, I'm asking about the actual color of the program [Vista Blue].  I would love to be able to change it to just about anything else, and according to the ads that Leadertask runs on multiple websites online, using skins on the background is a current option.

Unfortunately I don't see it, and from what I've read here in the forums [now that I've gone through the posts] people have been requesting a background color option for 3 or 4 years. I'm afraid since they've ignored those requests this long, it's probably not going to happen.  Too bad because I love this software, it's the best PIM program out there.  But, I absolutely hate Vista Blue, and that's the only thing keeping me from buying the Network version for my office. 

Sincererly,
Michael T.

It looks like there are plenty of people wanting to change the background color of the program -- even some who are willing to make the color issue influence their decision to purchase.  Surely this cannot be that hard for the programmers?  Not that I code, but it should be simple enough to let the user choose the color of the background instead of having it default to the OS's choice???
