[AccessD] Facelift for my App

Hi Rocky:

IMHO: 
1. Lighter colours are better than darker colours. 
2. The only serif fonts should be used in titles. 
3. Pretty buttons are currently in vogue. 
4. Outlines should be thin and light and if possible with curved corners. 
5. All objects should have space around them.
6. A bit of graphic would go a long way to make the page look more
sophisticated.

Subject: [AccessD] Facelift for my App

Dear List:
 
This must be my day to ask for help.  I want to give one of my apps a
facelift - change the colors, fonts, controls - stuff like that - to look
more moderne.
 
So I guess I'm looking for some web sties that might have some screen shots
of forms from which I could get some ideas.
 
The current app forms can be seen at http://www.e-z-mrp.com/ss_mainmenu.htm.
So you can see what I mean - functional but not beautiful.

What colors do you all favor for backcolors and forcolors?  Fonts? 

Any suggestions welcome.
