Hey WW,
No, your eyes are not deceiving you.

I am going for grayscale icons and gray theme so as not to distract from the actual image you are working with.
If you look at Photoshop or Lightroom, you will notice the same trend.
Are there still themes available that have non-grayscale icons? I for one find it much easier to zoom in on a tool when there is a bit of colour attached to it as I have a visual disturbance that makes me having to look at a monochrome set of icons two or three times before I know what it is. Since I resize my windows more than I would like, I can also not go by the position of the icons because they shift. Colour used to be used for emphasis and I understand that developers are constantly after new looks, but they are not always better for all concerned.

My preference is still this style
