I like a bit of colour on sites as long as readability remains paramount. There usually aren't a lot of images on the front page so a subtle colour scheme adds some visual interest. MoFi is a pretty casual and quirky place so the "professional white background" would seem a little out place in any case. Maybe we could have a few user-switchable themes to keep everyone happy.
I haven't done any CSS for quite a while but if I get some time I might give it a go.
