The bars are indeed yellow and the ship icon are orange. It is indeed not the best contrast but it still shows up clearly. If you are having real difficulty telling them appart it migth be for 1 of the following reasons I cna imagine.

1: You have a visual color impairness, sucks for you sorry dude.

2: Your monitor is old and it's colors are fading out.

3: Your monitors color and brightness setting are not properly setted.

You can change it. Under Windows folder there is a file call Colors. Just change the min and max construction colors. I dont think it would give you a different Checksum.

4: None of the above!!

No really, but since I don't want to go into the folders and mess with files and probably screw something up, I'll obviously put up with it since it is such a miniscule pet-peeve (as I made clear).

And yes, I probably shouldn't have said both were yellow, cuz they aren't.  The bar is yellow and the pic behind is a dirty yellow/orange...but obviously they are not the best contrast of colors.

Yeah i went in there just now and changed it to this:

minConstruction FF0000
maxConstruction FF0000

FF0000 is red.  Not sure if I picked the right variable or not.  Will test it out later when I'm caught up on studying!!! 

Thanks
