Default Ship Icons - Too Dark?

I usually pride myself on having good eyes, but does anyone else thing that many of the ship icon designs are just too dark, most especially for the small ship designs? I just started a game as the Sallega, and I can barely see the Escort ship design, especially against a background image of stars! The ship's length is only 2 pixels wide, and the brightest pixel is only 136/136/136. Playing around a bit, I noticed that by doing a quick histogram adjustment (set bright value to 200 or 220) in PSP to brighten the image does WONDERS to improve the visibility of the icons.
Anyone else think that these icons should be brightened up slightly? Even a little bit makes a huge difference.
