The theme is really cool. Looks awesome on Mac OS X. Since 85% of our
customers are windows users, I tested it on windows too. Dark themes
usually don't look as nice in windows (due to the different font
rendering techniques). Here are a couple of screenshots (compare how
menu entries look like):

What do you think?

Alternatively I would propose one of the bright themes like:

https://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/project-or-portfolio-site-WB0G66334
https://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/bootstrap-shopping-cart-WB00223R0
(replace orange with a shade of blue)
https://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/focus-business-WB0C4JJ9R

Yes, I like the idea. How can we do that?
