Can I suggest using a colour other than blue for highlighting areas of text in this document. Considering that links are the same colour, it would make the page more readable. Green perhaps?

:Yes, good point. I was reviewing it last night and the same point occurred to me (but I was too idle to do anything about it <g>). Actually, in truth, the problem is rather that I think blue is a really good color for it and couldn't think of another with the same combination of emphasis, clarity and umm... lack of "''shoutiness''" (<span style="color:red;">red is too "'''shouty'''"</span> for instance). What colour would you (or anybody else) suggest? [[User:Mikepeat|Mike]] 09:53, 22 November 2007 (CET) | |||
::There, changed it to <span style="color:midnightblue;">midnightblue</span> - how well does that work do you think? | |||
:::Oh, you '''did''' suggest a colour: green (Doh! when will I learn to read things through?), but I am using green for comments (the Studio default), which I think also need to stand out. | |||
::The midnight blue is better, and I can understand the hesitation in using green and red. Not enough colours in the rainbow![[User:Hellboy1975|Hellboy1975]] 13:18, 22 November 2007 (CET) | |||
::: After you've used up RGB all that's left is mixtures and intensities... makes you wonder how those artist wallahs manage... ''';-)''' On the same general tack, I've started a ''Style Guide'' discussion on the [[Talk:Main_Page#Style_Guide.3F|main discussion page]] to see if we can't come up with some agreed conventions. I am not wedded to any particular way of doing it - I just want it to (a) be clear and comprehensible and (b) look nice. [[User:Mikepeat|Mike]] 14:57, 22 November 2007 (CET) | |||
