 An author on my site has advised me that the form fields in wp-admin
 became practically invisible after upgrading to WP 2.7.

 Our solution was to modify this part of wp-admin/css/colors-fresh.css

 {{{
 .form-table input,
 .form-table textarea,
 .search-input,
 .form-field input,
 .form-field textarea,
 .submit {
         border-color: #DFDFDF;
 }
 }}}

 replacing the value with

 {{{
         border-color: #BBB;
 }}}

 Please consider that the existing value of #DFDFDF creates a light-gray on
 lighter-gray on white color scheme for text boxes that may contribute to
 contrast blindness.
