Why is black text on white background so damn popular? it's like trying to read the text on a lit light bulb all day long. STOP IT. Twitter has that now when you look at your followers and probably on other pages.

Unfortunately Skype cannot be changed.

I run KDE with dark theme, Skype is dark as well. On some inferior desktop environment you could use window inversion. OSX has some hotkey which inverts colors...

Maximizing contrast improves readability. Can't you just turn down your screen brightness if it's too bright?
