here's you answer :)

Blackle was created by Heap Media to remind us all of the need to take small steps in our everyday lives to save energy. Blackle searches are powered by Google Custom Search.
Blackle saves energy because the screen is predominantly black. "Image displayed is primarily a function of the user's color settings and desktop graphics, as well as the color and size of open application windows; a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen." Roberson et al, 2002

Two I like are:

Glassarcade
Ogre

I think the yellow on the Ogre site stands out nicely but the white text on there can become hard to read.

Did you look at Ogres forum that is where the link is supposed to point. It is black with yellow and white text - unless that is a very dark green and I can't tell the difference. The other one is mine but it is black with blue text and I like it.
