Colors/Themes
Provide more coloured themes, instead of resorting to just the monochrome ones.

The application is ugly and painful to look at. The dark color scheme is bright white letters on black--way too high a contrast. The light color scheme is gray letters on a gray background--not enough contrast. Both are awful. Give users the ability to choose from other themes that might be easier on the eyes! This is why I continue to go back to the old Yahoo Mail look. Until you fix the basic appearance and make it less painful to view, I don't care what other features you've added.

Bring back the Stationery, bring back the cute picture backgrounds, your scheduler doesn't work! Do not become Gmail please. That's what it looks like now. I don't want the new email unless you bring back the cute picture backgrounds and the stationery. Attempted to use your scheduler of emails and it didn't work.

No way to change color. Boring white. Drab Black. Prefer old mail.

Please bring back the colored themes! If someone has more than one email account, it will be very easy for them to quickly differentiate which account is which.

Not so much an idea but a wish to restore the lovely themes and backgrounds that we had in the previous version.
Especially the purple ones which reflected on the Y! trademark and colour. It's easier for the eyes in my opinion.
Thanks in advance,
Robert (happy Yahoo mail user since 2000!) -

Like gmail, it would be nice to have personalised theme background. Earlier yahoo had it. Now its only dark or light mode which is very irritating

You could add more design themes. I liked that in the previous version, it was possible to choose a background with digital art.

Basically, light is too light and dark is too dark. I can't get used to either. The appearance needs more themes or even more colours to chose from.

A dark font over a dark background is difficult to read and manage the calendar. I find no help, gear-wheel, settings and the like towards modifying the calendar. Others like Microsoft have the power to override your app as do you to override others. The internet requires a governor to standardize operations.

I can not change the color theme, I don't like the purple color theme, because purple means related to the death in my culture here. I hope you understand. Thank you.

I like the new appearance but I would love to be able to choose some more colorful schemes and not just a choice between the light mode and the dark mode.

customization is very limited. I think it would be great if we were able to change color and layout to our preference.

I would be a lot Happyier if it was reverted back to the Australian Themed Main Page.
It was a lot easier to work with.Now you have a Bland --Black and White Main Page which is similar to GMAIL.
In Business you needa point of difference.
You had a good one now you have changed it -

I know there is a "light" and "dark" option, but there should be more customizable viewing options because the darkening of read messages draws your attention TO them as though they are more important, it's quite terrible. I would suggest adjustable colour/shade for background, read messages, unread messages, etc, I thought there used to be in the old version; why take away options? There could also be alight adjustments for spacing of items in the left menu, messages etc, as I don't need lots of space on a desktop pc, and would rather not have to scroll down quite as much to find items in a list. The link to "manage your account" is broken right now (3/12/25).
