Hi Daniel,

It's an interesting idea, which we may consider. Actually, in our framework we have few classes for labels. One of them called wordwraplabel has blue color letters and a large font. So, I just used it. Really, I decided not to go too deep in making effects, etc., though in my own applications I usually spend a lot of time on UI and try to make them 'perfect'. Back to the old FPD2.6 days I remember, when I just started to work I once sat with my colleague (she had a lot of experience with FPD) and choosed color schemes. Finally we found couple of very relaxing and nice schemes, which I later used in all my other DOS applications...
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
