Well, that sounds like a terrible mess! I won't expect a miracle then. Just remember one day when you're bored (I know you're all kinds of busy now, but eventually), that a lot of users wouldn't mind if there were just some simple color scheme options. If they were buried in the User CP, no one is going to dig it up before they bask in the glory of all of this blue for awhile - or if they do find it that fast, they must really be that averse to these colors.

Anyway, if there were a couple other options eventually, with colors selected to go nicely with the Shrapnel logo (and maybe even make it jump attractively out of the background. ), it would be cool.
