[theme-reviewers] wp-themes: voidy - 1.3.1

[Daniel Zilli]

Hi guys,

Sorry for being nosy here, but I would like to ask something.  The colours used in this
theme doesn't pleased me either, but should we judge colours style? It's a personal taste.
Since I'm new here, I would love a guideline about this, because the only reference so far about it that I have is the Accessibility in
Theme Development Checklist.

Regards,
Daniel
