Anyone who is familiar with XML can customise the colours of MixEmergency 1.2 if they would like. There is a file in the MixEmergency application package called "colors.xml" that can be modified. If you know about XML then it should be fairly obvious what to do with it - otherwise I wouldn't recommend playing around with the file.
If anyone does this (and finds an alternative colour scheme that they like to use), then please post a screenshot of the colour scheme in this thread.

1) Go to the MixEmergency application.
2) Right click MixEmergency and select "Show Package Contents".
3) Navigate into the folder named "Contents", and then into "Resources".
4) Copy and past (don't move) the colors.xml into ~/Movies/MixEmergency/colors.xml
5) Edit the new file at ~/Movies/MixEmergency/colors.xml

it's too bright for me, but not bad for the first try. i need to try to find a good color combination.
finally figured out the controls one by one. the hard part is converting rgb 0-255 to rgb 0-1.

the features give MixEmergency such a good name, no color combination could could give it a bad one.
will have to fix that.

e.g. orange would be something like:
1.0
0.4
0.2
it sticks out enough on the screen for me to find each window quickly and i can read it.
plus, to get it to be anything close to well designed i'd have to switch the greys to a shade of yellow due to the red and the blue. then i'd have to switch the white font to a black for readability. and even then the enable buttons and drop down windows (black) would need to be adjusted.
not knowing what each individual line changes is a bitch and trial and error is hell.
maybe, hopefully, Nick won't mind providing some info on that someday.
what line did you change to make the darker grey area red?
i changed ControlBackground to 0.61/0.25/0.25
i also changed Unavailable to 0.75/0.0/0.0.
i had a cheatsheet that mapped the name in the xml to the control in the UI but i lost it. i have some free time this week so i'll redo it and upload it here.
