It appears that slime overwrites some color-theme variable, making the color selection option on the Emacs menu bar (under Tools) pop up this error message:
face-attribute: Wrong type argument: symbolp, (slime-repl-inputed-output-face)
My default.el has
... (require 'color-theme) ; wild colors ... (require 'slime)
This has been occurring for awhile, I guess that color-theme is not that popular. I like using colors to help separate what username is working on what problem. Are there better alternatives?

I get the same error message if I try to launch color-themes from the tools menu, but it works fine when I do M-x color-theme-xxx , and it autocompletes on the themes available, so I've just been doing it that way.
I find some of those themes extremely useful for complicated code work.

Same here. I didn't even notice there was a tool bar thing or I would have mentioned this earlier.
My .emacs has
.... (require 'slime) .... ;; Colors (syntax highlighting) (global-font-lock-mode t) ; some people hate this (require 'color-theme) (color-theme-clarity) ; I like this a bit better than dark-laptop, I think.
I am too lazy to setup colors myself, so color-theme.el is nice to have.
