Do I buy these if I want to change the color of my light switches?
My light switches control overhead lights without dimmers -- they are simple on and off switches. The ones up now are ivory and were painted over. I want to replace them with white ones. Would these work? They are the same size as the ones that are up there now. Decora 15 Amp Single Pole AC Quiet Switch, White. I am not doing the installation -- but i want to make sure I am buying the right thing from Home Depot.

Those switches will work fine, as long as each switch being replaced controls one light or one set of lights, and there's not another switch controlling the same light or set of lights.
Pick up a couple of two-way switches , of the same style, while you're at the store. If the installer needs them, you won't have to run out and get them, in the middle of the job. If they're not used, return them at your leisure.

It will work BUT it will require a suitable face plate.

Those should work, I personally think that particular switch is a little too light duty (cheap) for me, that style itself is not a problem.
