Anyone willing to help me test a new style?

I've liked the features and layout of LJ's new default style, Air, for a while now, but I've really hated the colors. Last week I started investigating what I could do to alter it to suit my preferences, and I think I've gotten it pretty much the way I like (it matches the colors I have set on my friends feed - I call it Autumn Evening.)

Harold, your colours aren't very kind to my eyes, and it is physically easier for me to read your entry from my friends feed. I'm so in love with the Pastel Spring of the good old Flexible Squares because I feel comfortable looking at that colour combination (my eyes are terribly sensitive to bright colours and it also takes me too much effort to read from a dark background).

I don't know if this feedback is of any use to you. Sorry if it isn't.

My apologies, I really should have considered making a lighter-colored version for testing. Give me a couple days and I'll whip something together.

I'm mostly looking for any oddities, places where the original colors (like those seen on journal's using the default style, such as andrewducker) are leaking through into the new color scheme.

I'm not a potential tester (too inept and too in love with my current theme and ouch, I can't remember what exactly I customized a long time ago and how to do it again), but I thought I may as well warn you because I'm not the only one who has such issues.

Well, at least it isn't yellow letters on a purple background. THAT is the stuff of nightmares for me, worse than even white letters on a white background. LOL But seriously, a lighter colour scheme that is still different from those original colours would be a very good idea for testers (and then for general users) with sensitive eyes.
