How to change the theme of Office 2013

Thank you for the feedback on Office’s new look. We are actively collecting, sorting and reading through feedback on Office 2013’s design and User Experience. As the audience for Office 2013 grows, we are being mindful of patterns and pain points that emerge from user feedback. While we do not have any additional Themes planned at this time, it is an issue we are watching very closely. Great! When you stop watching and start doing let me know; until then 2013 goes in the same pile as ME, ME2 (Vista), and ME3 (8). Lots of potential obliterated by some mind-numbingly silly design decisions. It's now July 2013, and yet, same ****. Thanks, as usual, for nothing MS, the only company who more times than not makes products worse with each new "update."

When will other themes be available? Most specifically, Blue....

I spend hours a day in Outlook. I "upgraded" to Office 2013 when I purchased a Surface so that all my computers would have the same software.

Staring at Outlook all day, even with the dark grey theme, it is a very boring, tough on the eyes screen. People need contrast in the screens or their eyes have a hard time focusing quickly.

This needs to be a priority for Microsoft - yet I cant find any update plan anywhere....

Shacks, there's no room up there for their fingers because theirs heads are up there. The real solution here is never going to happen - get Bill Gates back in charge of software. He would never have released this pile of **** on an unsuspecting and loyal public. He's a multi-billionaire because he LISTENED to what people wanted and gave it to them. That is obviously gone at Microsoft without him. They think they know better and force-feed us what they want, not what we want. Reading the thousands and thousands of posts about how unhappy people are, it's hard to swallow Microsoft's statement that they aren't entertaining any more themes.

I spoke with their Answer Team and was assured this is "top of mind" at Microsoft and that ARE working on it. Does anyone believe that? I then asked why someone couldn't take the two minutes to post an apology, tell us they are working on it feverishly and when we can expect an update. Too much to ask? I don't think so.
