How sexy the data looks is sometimes more important than how accurate it is!

I love a light grey/dark grey colour scheme as much as the next person, but it be great to be able to brand the dashboard with the organisation colours/background watermark/logos etc. Maybe offer an option to modify the default CSS used - similar to how blogging sites like blogger allow you to change your page layouts/colours with a simple admin gui or completely change it by rewriting the CSS

Hey everyone - I'm excited to share that we shipped dashboard theming this week: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/announcing-dashboard-theming-in-the-power-bi-service/. Give it a try and let us know if you have any feedback! Well, with Power BI, not only keep your data accurate but you can also now make it look - as Jakub originally stated in this idea - sexy. :)

I can just repeat what was said before: "You've spent so much effort providing ways of stylizing the reports, but if any user has a dark theme (with light text) then the dashboards won't work."

I agree with you Scott. Don't push users to the other reporting tools... Did I mention tableau?

It's now October 12, 2016 = 5 full months since this was announced that it was "Started"!

Could we please have some sort of "update or roadmap" as this is a "huge ask by our customers"!

Would this also include the 'alerts's email that goes out? Reports can be customised, but at the moment, the format of this is out of our control.

September update out but still no progress on this one even though lower ranked ideas have been done. Its is critical to uptake. I waste too much time custom branding colours for the company. It needs to be fixed.

I really think this new light grey/dark grey color scheme is terrible. Does not render well in the browser and difficult to read the numbers. What's wrong with letting us select our own font/color according to Company standards?

Please make so.
