Premiere Pro CC: can blue text interface be changed back to yellow?

I love that Adobe's official response is, essentially, "yeah, our Beta Testers really didn't like it, either, but we went ahead with it, anyway!"

"several beta testers reported that they started off not so keen on the new look, but within a short time they came to like it."

In PPro...not only is the blue text much harder to read overall, but the blue text in the Effects Controls area does not get any brighter when adjusting the background brightness. The TC values blue text does, but this vital info does not.

Additionally, it does not even match the blue text color in the After Effects Effects Controls area. It's the brighter blue seen in the TC values.

There's no continuity between programs either.

Just wanted to add my dissatisfaction with the blue (especially in AE, don't really use Premiere).  "While I generally prefer blue to yellow as a color, this new mix is definitely more difficult on the eyes.  There's not enough contrast between the blue and the background."  <-This. And pretty much everything other intelligent and thoughtful negative response about the new scheme.

ADOBE: Please make it user-selectable and/or go back to the yellow ASAP.

The new design is too harsh, less readable and not customizable.

Imagine the flat design as an option, like before =

Same here... I'm not colorblind but it is harder to read than the old yellow Color. The blue looks way "cooler" for sure - but I'm favoring readability over coolness.

52 years old.  Blue has never been an easy color for me to resolve details in.  It actually tends to wander around a bit in space.  This may be a chromatic aberration effect.  Every pair of glasses I've ever had has had the tendency to shift blues away from the other colors... some much worse than others.  Its nauseating on a bad pair of glasses.

The post office created a bunch of its signs with a blue like this lit from inside, and it floats around so much in my vision at night, I avert my eyes from it when driving past to avoid being distracted! 

This change looked nice until I started trying to work in earnest.

Setting background to its darkest setting helps some, but it is still not good.

There is something missing in the research done by the Experience Design team.... looks like a significant segment of the population has the same trouble reading this color as I do.  Obviously, giving us control over it would be a great favor.

FYI, I'm looking at this on an apple 30" Cinema display.

I'm fairly okay with the blue text. It's not such an issue for my eyes on my monitor.

The chief gripe I have is the bezier handles in the Effect Controls window - they are *dark* blue on a dark grey background and are close to impossible to make out. This makes absolutely zero sense.

If I want to manually affect easing, I have to change my background grey to light so I can make out *something*, and then switch back to default dark and continue.

Good God...  The blue is not NEARLY bright enough to stand out and be legible.  I don't wear glasses, my near field vision is great, but the lack of contrast is making me squint!

Contrast is key to legibility...

Please give us a way to fix this...  Everything else about this release (and Premiere CC in general) has been awesome, but this one feature!  thanks!

It's a legibility thing for me too. The yellow really stood out. The text is almost ok, but when you're motion tracking in AE, for instance, and you have hundreds of keyframes butted up against one another, you could still make out a yellow, selected keyframe. The blue blends in to the point of being comical almost.

Gimme a check box for blue or yellow, design team. Pretty please.

Adobe....please.....it doesn't matter what flavor or "intensity" of blue you use, simply don't use BLUE for tiny text on a dark background.  Period.  Maybe leave it as your "new look" by default, but please allow provisions for the users to change it to suit our individual needs.

Happy users = customer loyalty.

I love your products and use them every day, have for twenty years or better. Please lose the BLUE.
