I'm finding my teal wording hard to read. Does anyone have a suggestion for a better color? I normally use orange, but we are using that for actions.

Speaking of lowest intelligence, that reminds me of the fact that it's probably your first time in prison. Don't worry, I can give you some tips, having spent some time in a few myself. The best way to make friends here is to drop the soap during shower time. Try it, I'm sure you'll love making friends like that!

I'm using darkling. So its about the same tone as the background, but a different color.

Doesn't bother my eyes much, but there are indeed better colours.

Aquamarine perhaps? But that might be hell for people with the lighter theme.

There's a list of bbcode colours here.

It is rather painful on the eyes, as someone using the default.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

Blue is horrid for me. It's like a blob with no discernable shape.

Royal blue is good though, if it looks decent on default.

Pretty sure there are more players than usual colors. Maybe we should categorize by profession?

The colors it shows in the "Change color" bar are not the only ones, there's a lot more that aren't shown there.

For example, Dark Green or Corn flower blue

I agree. And maybe add character names before speaking, just until we all learn eachother's character names.

What about these colors for color coding posts? I tried staying as close to people's posts as possible, but some people are just using white and we have doubles in some areas.
