Please, make it stop!

With these changes, if you engage in rapid trading you are liable to be driven insane by flashing lights. Just to put one item up for sale:

1. The inventory window will brighten when you right click the item.
2. The inventory window will dim and the market window will brighten when you select and click show market details
3. The market window will dim and the inventory window will brighten when, having read the price you now select sell item.
4. On selecting sell item the inventory screen will darken.
5. When the order confirmation box appears the WHOLE SCREEN darkens and then lightens again when you click ok.

All these lighting changes occur in a period of less than five seconds. For anyone who trades hundreds of items an hour this will rapidly lead to the loss of sanity for absolutely no additional functionality.

Please, make it stop (especially the whole screen going dark every time I carry out an action I do 100s of times an hour)! Or at least give me the option to turn it off.

Edit - This effect is MUCH less noticeable if you use Dark Matter rather than a racial colour scheme. Still irritating but doesn't give me sea-sickness.
