Uh, that can be set by users as a perk for having enough karma. I think we usually do black bars on the top.

Its unreadable with that shade. I use #cccccc.

I use #ffaa33 as my default as it's a lighter shade

The proposed color makes it unreadable, #aa99ff looks ok though

That isn't a purple.

I'm going to use #EED2EE which is thistle, close enough. ;)

The topbar text colour should change automatically to the one with the best contrast.
