I like to see the nebula, but don't clutter the ship background all the time.
It's also a good idea to make the more colorful stuff a lot smaller, like real
life views, k? 

On a thought, maybe more transparency so you can see the ship
your flying, or even make the backgrounds types and settings
available in the menus!

These are background nebula, not the nebula poofs that you see when you're actually flying through a nebula mission.

i don't really mind the amount of color going on or the chaos (it's rather pretty in stills for me), but this would make me absolutely RAGE in game for never being able to see anything.

My issue would be with seeing the hud, but I'm also not sure such a colorful background would fit very well into most campaigns.  That much color just doesn't seem "Freespace" to me.  Then again, nebula backgrounds in general have always sort of bothered me for scientific accuracy reasons.  Still pretty though.

"other": They seem like the outpourings of my mouth when I'm deeply sick of my stomach.

Or they look like diarrheia. Haven't decided yet.

At times they interfere with the hud.

Other: Basically what Axem said.

Too many times, there's been a background that's just too busy and/or bright, and I was unable to see messages or weapons fire. I would have to steer my ship to point at a darker portion of sky to just read stuff. And these in particular suffer from oversaturation and too much brightness.
