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. :)

RE: Custom branding/colour scheme of dashboard (custom css?)
I echo TinHau concern. This should be available on Power BI Report Server as well.
RE: Custom branding/colour scheme of dashboard (custom css?)
This is a huge need, often my senior management want to view dashboards that incorporate tiles from multiple reports. The inability to display these with our corporate branding is a real downfall. Please include this soon
RE: Custom branding/colour scheme of dashboard (custom css?)
Seems like an easy thing to implement... where is this?
RE: Custom branding/colour scheme of dashboard (custom css?)
It would be very helpful to have a basic level of branding in the Power BI Report Server, since it is still a preview this gets cut from the PBIRS release and that is not good for an enterprise where you wanna use PBIRS in production.
RE: Custom branding/colour scheme of dashboard (custom css?)
This would be super indeed!
RE: Custom branding/colour scheme of dashboard (custom css?)
As this is listed as "started" - it would be ideal to have more than one theme that you could select from. Perhaps you'd have a theme focused on products and a different one focused on customers and a third focused on performance or something. Then you could select the theme and have the color scheme & defaults import automatically.

For More Theme-ing help you can visit this page that has a structured way of loading custom themes into PowerBI Desktop.

RE: Custom branding/colour scheme of dashboard (custom css?)
I'd love to see this implemented. We are using backgrounds and themes to produce some branded reports, but the transition from dashboard to report is jarring, because of the sudden change of style. Being able to add a background to a PowerBI report would create a seamless transition between the two and allow customisation away from the out of the box styles.
RE: Custom branding/colour scheme of dashboard (custom css?)
The original post was missed. Much like the author, we need the ability to change dashboard tile colors for both text and backgrounds. The "Started" Microsoft update is referring to report theming NOT dashboard theming. Can we please get an update on dashboard theming?
RE: Custom branding/colour scheme of dashboard (custom css?)
Cool preview so far. However, for those less technical, there should be a front end to create themes without having to modify and import JSON files.
