At first blush, I prefer the light blue.

I like the change. It is a little closer to the way FR used to be. Much easier for me to differentiate between threads I've been to from those I haven't during times when there is a lot of light in the room.

Just my $0.02.

The new color let's me enjoy the light blue font for several minutes after I stop looking at the screen.

I disagree. The current version of Free Republic is great; it's a massive improvement over the "beta."
