Black for sure. The white makes me feel uneasy.

As of right now, I prefer the black bomb. The white skin is a bit too bight, and there are still some minor bugs that annoy me.

Black. It doesn't clash with the bar at the top, it doesn't burn my eyes, and since I've been using it ever since I joined, it just looks... well, right.

I preferred the old white before they removed it and the redesign, although the design might have been a factor.

I like the white actually and have it on right now. It's not putting a strain on my eyes. The black is still good though.

White for now, as I like some change, but I'll probably switch to black at some point

I just switched to white a couple minutes ago, and I think I find it to be a little easier on the eyes. Though I'm not sure if I'll stick with it.

Wow, I didn't get a burning sensation until I turned it back to black a few seconds ago, but I like the black more. It's the only version I've used.

I'm going to leave the white for a bit and see how it goes with time.  Right now it's not too bad.

White is a little too white but I'm using it as it's a pretty cool change of pace.

Copy-paste from the general thoughts thread: 
 
I really don't understand what the big deal is about the white design. The site is very obviously built with the black color scheme in mind, and the white always ends up looking like a mishmash between the two rather than a full-fledged skin.

I always prefer websites with a darker color theme. It much easier on the eyes since the LCD screen sends out a really strong bright light already.

I say White. But now that there are two sides, they all look very different, and it feels like I am missing something if I only stay with one....

Black, since:
 
a.) That black/back thing.
b.) It fits the parts that don't change.
c.) White text on white background? The hell? Speaking of...
d.) Reminds me of GameSpot.
e.) All of the above.

It's weird...before i preferred the white site...then the redesign came along with no option, and i got used to it in black for a year! so now the white is back and i hate it...and on top of that , because throughout the entire cloudy rainbow bombcast page...i wanted the page to be white! and now that a white site is available, There's no cloudy rainbow background! 
 
That's crazy to me.

I like White...for now it's kind of refreshing. I might switch back though.

I prefer the idea of a white layout, but obviously the contrast on my monitor must be too high or something.  I pretty much lose the entire layout when I got to White.

I instanly switched to white when I had the option, and I'm never changing back. No matter how buggy it is/gets. At least I can read the content on the site now.

I really like the white. I've never liked all-black websites, for some reason.

Yeah, I agree with the "too white" crowd. Maybe use 250-250-250 instead of 255-255-255?

I've been waiting for the black on white.  The other was killing my  eyes and kept me from getting on here as  much.
