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. :)

We need this. I created numerous 'alerts's based on number cards, and background colors would help a lot in viewing.

Power BI Dashboards desperately need some of the customization features that are commonplace on reports.

This is one of the most 'crucial' feature that Power BI does not provide. I would be really appreciated if this was actually implemented. Power BI reports and dashboard should be customized/tweaked a lot more, e.g., you can't change color and also font DUH!?

At the Data Insights Summit in May 2016 there was some talk of enabling branding/theming the site. I was told, informally, that his option was in the works. I imagine there is a lot of complexity to offering this from a business standpoint for Microsoft. It has to fit with the plan.

Anyway, I am also looking forward to this feature.

This is very important. SSRS/Datazen is awesome on it and many customers say it's better to go to SSRS than Power BI because of styling many times.

Today is now December 4, 2016, so can we PLEASE have an update to this "critical" functionality compared to the competition?
