Looks like a great plugin, but doesn't seem to work in Chrome Dev on Ubuntu. UI idea, add a link to the options page in your favicon dropdown.

Hello! If you right click the PageAction (favicon) you can go to the options page. About not working on Ubuntu... Please give more details.

Ah ok, stupidity on my part in both cases! It actually does work, but after skimming the description I assumed it was for styling 'View Source' tabs. Which would be a great feature btw.

The first step in saving my coder eyes is to not use light text with a dark background.

So? I find the opposite much more comfortable.

What I do to save my coder sanity is not try to write serious code in my web browser.

I've recently switched to [Solarized](http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized), which offers both options, but I think it excels at keeping contrast comfortably low.

I also use Solarized light for coding. ;)

If you took the time to really check it out you would see there are many more themes to choose from.

Perhaps you should showcase some of those themes in the screenshots... I, too, dismissed your extension out-of-hand, and only noticed the theme selection dropdown after reading your comment.
