"Not really an answer is it..."
Hi, you missed the whole point, first of all I'm not working for Norton and what I mentionned earlier in my post is just my personal custom settings, which I wouldn't expect for other users to follow.
I prefer having my browser as "light" as possible, this is the main reason why some NIS components/add-ons are disabled.
That's all.
Hope this helps your understanding.
Regards,

To be honest, I do not pay much attention to the GUI of Norton, as long as the product does it's job, I'm fine with this.
(And as long as my eyes do not suffer when reading the menus).
After all, it's an AV product released for a limited period of time, 1 year, it's not PS Illustrator or Photoshop or something similar where I would expect a fantastic interface etc...
Just an opinion.
Best regards,
That's true, performance is more important than appearance, but say you wanted to lease a car for twelve months and that car was the very latest Ferrari, but someone @ Ferrari had a brain-fart and that model was only available in pink with yellow and orange spots.....
Really, I'm not expecting a change in v21, but perhaps towards the end of the year when traditionally new versions are released maybe the developers could have a change of mind on the next GUI.

Krusty13's is much supieor the the factory UI. I would even tone down the yellow even a little more. It doesn't need to glow in the dark.
Why is this still not fixed? I had to use the Removal tool, and now I can't even see the options. This hurts my eyes, and I want the old color scheme back. What the heck are we paying for?!

This looks too light coloured and ugly.
Thanks for considering.
Thanks for that image Dave. I have seen folks complaining about it, but the closest I have to N 360 is Comcast NSS and it is still on 20.4.0.40 and hasn't changed to that god awful, non contrast, hard on the eyes looking garbage yet and I hope it don't change. It is almost as bad as the butcher job that has happened with the ID Safe Vault and the lack of user freindly locations for options.
Oh BTW - I do support the color and contrast change if you haven;'t figured that out yet! 
Hi Yank,
Maybe I should of started a new thread for better exposure instead of tacking on to this one?
I agree - this GUI is quite ugly (as is the Norton drop down bar for selecting logons) - it is hard to read, as grey text on a white background does not actually show up very well on many screens / lights - plus it doesn't tie in with the rest of the product - when I click on Tasks for example, the header bar is black with white text....

Thanks Mohan for moving this to it's own thread!
Hi RWAP,
Thnaks for the screenshot:
I have to think of WYSIWYG - and whoever developed the graphics did not get what they saw!
That is horrible!
I am no graphics designer (as anyone who sees my websites will soon realise) - but even I can see that there is no cohesion between the various graphics used for:
a) Nortron 360 main screen
b) Tasks screen
c) Norton Taskbar
d) Drop down for ID Safe login
The ID safe login drop down uses the full width of the browser and a deep panel, which is a real pain on small screens, or where you need to see the full screen of the website... Most of it is just blank space - there seems no reason why it couldn't be integrated within the Norton Taskbar itself.
The Norton Taskbar is also too deep and I doubt many people would want the Share option on there - what's that got to do with security?
This is what it looks like on Firefox...
I do not use 360, but I too have seen the comments in the forums.
I agree that the GUI appears all washed out and hard to read. Maybe there could be some way to add a variety of background themes.

Yes, thanks for moving this Mohan. 
I've just found this image of the GUI on the
Norton 360™

My question to Symantec is, why can't MY GUI look like that instead of the bland, washout looking GUI I've posted above?
... Another example - Can the developers see what I mean here?
What looks better???
Maybe marketing decided to go for the "bold new look of insignificant dullness" ... Or perhaps this "diaphanous interface" is the result of far too much time spent in a mindless fog by the UI design team?
Hi,
Maybe trying a pro color calibrator for your pc's?? LOL!
I agree that the colors are washed-out but a good color calibration, NOT the Windows native of course, should help.
A bit of color & Gamma correction too for your monitors.
If you are having Nvidia GPU's and using the Nvidia settings for adjusting your monitor's brightness, PM me and I will provide some color profiles.
Best regards,
Hi Apostolos,
I have Radeon graphics, but I not going to adjust my settings to correct a Norton issue. All other versions have displayed fine, it's just the new v21 that is washed out and very plain looking.
Hi Krusty13,
Ok, no problem.
Regards,
Surely that depends on the menu you are looking at 
as some of the menus are still using the old (better) GUI...
Let's face it - whatever the users say on here, Norton will not listen and just go their own way - after all having spent $1000s on a new fancy GUI which someone (a 15 year old ?) thinks looks modern and fancy, they are not going to throw it all out of the window just because users can't read the menus any longer....
Mind you - I can't comment any more - I gave up on Norton in December and moved onto another product....
