Actual Behavior

The current color combination in settings division feels odd and not professional. I feel like a better combination would be changing the font color to white or using some other color than black instead. I also feel like this page doesn't need to be that consistent with others like community, tutorial etc.. pages, so we have the freedom of changing the background color of the buttons.

Expected Behavior

A better color combination so that it doesn't cause reading problems.

Steps to reproduce

Go to p5 and hover on the settings buttons
