Hi,
The plain blue, green, and red used to display quoted text (in
<blockquote>) in the default skin look a little out of place amongst the muted colours used for icons and other elements. I've substituted them for "Sky Blue", "Plum", and "Scarlet Red" from the Tango icon project's palette and slightly lightened the background. The result (attached) doesn't look too bad to me. I tried "Chameleon" (green) as well but that was a bit weird.
(Tango palette: http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Theme_Guidelines#Color_Palette )
I think the colour of hyperlinks (which IIRC is the browser default and usually plain blue again) could also use a similar change.
I haven't filed a ticket since this is largely subjective, and I'd like to know what other people's preferences would be. I guess this might also have minor consequences for colour-blind users.

Nice patch, the new colours really look better.

Personally, I think you should file a ticket. It would be a nice improvement.
