cue the color whiners!!

Currently the most popular decorating color, green symbolizes nature. It is the easiest color on the eye and can improve vision. It is a calming, refreshing color. People waiting to appear on TV sit in "green rooms" to relax. Hospitals often use green because it relaxes patients. Brides in the Middle Ages wore green to symbolize fertility. Dark green is masculine, conservative, and implies wealth. However, seamstresses often refuse to use green thread on the eve of a fashion show for fear it will bring bad luck.

is it called kelly green or baby schyte green?

miss farish (our drama teacher) taught us it was due to green revealing the truest representation of skin tones.

The green catches my eye a little too much, maybe tone it back a little.

 

[sperkins]

i like it. nice upgrade.

Agreed.

Hexadecimal color #999966 would be easier on the eyes and would work better with the other colors.

#999966 is a lighter shade of green

Can't tell who rep is given from now?

The green is nice, could be lighter, less contrast-y to the rest of the page.

So what the hell is it doing here if it is so good?

I don't know what your teacher was talking about but green lighting on stage makes people look HORRIBLE. It does not give you a true representaion of your skin tone.

If you want something "accurate" (which is a BS word by the way) you need cool from one side and a warm from the other. Bastard Amber and 1/2 cut blue are good for this.

I dunno...personally this shade of green makes me sick and angry. That might be because it's not a masculine and conservative dark green though.

 

[Damo]

I like it. The new look is clean, modern and smart.
I like the new little touches to this new software too (multiple quotes, quick reply, new posts...). I haven't explored fully yet, but so far, so good.

 

[DirtyDog]

I'm trying that but I think it looks too tan. Have a slightly greener shade?

Agreed.

I saw this color green in my daughters diaper the other day

 

[binary visions]

#336633 is a nice forest green. Probably wouldn't be conducive to black text, though.

 

[Total Heckler]

Is the box (with user cp, FAQ, member list, etc) in between the RM banner at the top and the actual forums aligned to the right for anyone else? Kind of annoying.

I am running Firefox 2.0.0.14 on a mac.


EDIT - Not digging the new color. We should go with a #009900

Try the color wheel:

I'll see if I can find a greener shade as well.

 

[AngryMetalsmith]

Try #999933, it's just a touch greener.

Hmm nope. Seeking the perfect green....
