The UI colors you see exist only in the debug ROMs - each UI element has its own (ugly) color so you can tell when something isn't drawn/redrawn properly and if graphics transparency isn't set correctly.
Use the debug ROMs for most of your development, because of the added error checking and validation provided by them. Then run on the release ROMs to see what your graphics will look like on a real device (or many of them, anyway). This topic has been discussed frequently in this forum and is also covered in the free online course Expert Case Studies on the PalmSource web site.
