<h3><strong>Light Mode vs. Dark Mode</strong></h3>
<p>Snap<em>!</em> starts off in a "dark mode" by default, which means the backgrounds are a dark gray. Some people prefer dark modes, especially people who work late at night. You can change the background back and forth between dark and light by using the "flat design" setting.</p>

<li>Open the Settings menu, and select "Looks..." (near the top of the menu). There are (at least) two ways to change the look. "Bright theme" makes the background white. "Flat design" removes the slight three-dimensional shading from the blocks.<br />

<div id="hint-drop" class="collapse">Although the background color is the most visible difference, the block shapes are also different. The normal blocks are shaded to give a three-dimensional look; the flat blocks don't have that shading. There's no reason there couldn't be dark flat mode or light shaded mode, but fewer modes keep things simpler.</div>
