For those of us addicted to forums posts and whatnot.

Oh hai there team! You may know me as being the Picture Mod for the Pictures, the maker of the temporary team forum banner, and for my obnoxiousness. But that's not the point, as of now. What I'm going to do is pretty much give a minitalk on POST COLORS for the forums.

There are two ways in all. Either type in the name of the color in the color BBC code tag, or use hex. Here's a long list of the colors in word name form, and the color codes below.

Now, for those of us that would like a better color than those, you'd want to find out the hex color code of that color. Here is a good place to see a color that you would like. Play around with it alittle til you find the right hue of a color that you absolutely adore. Once you do, pay attention to where it says "Hex". That's the code you'd be using for your own custom color. To use it, you'd use this: (I'll use a green as an example)

Code:

[color=#15DA81]This is what it will look like. Yes, you need the "#" before it, or else it will not work.[/color]

And This is what it will look like. Yes, you need the "#" before it, or else it will not work.

See? Not so hard. :3

You may ask questions here if you wish, or PM me on what color may be best for you, or even how to do it specifically. You are open to also use this thread to test colors and centering/placing posts to the right and whatnot, so happy posting!

Oh, you may also talk about random stuffs here, if you wish! x)

[3p!c.]

I like this one!

[3p!c.]

It doesn't work well on the green background though.

[Ex-Member]

quite true on that. ._.

Which is why I'm using this red color, which matches my avatar image and gaiaonline profile, for those that have seen it! =D

[TiRAMIsu]

What do you have against the normal font colors, Myduyen? : / What have they done to you?

What do you have against the normal font colors, Myduyen? : / What have they done to you?

Trami, the normal font colors are fine, it's just that the forum may become a cloud of confusion eventually, and it'd be hard to differentiate who's thoughts are whom (aside from looking at their avatar image, which I usually pay no heed to )

Besides, it's fun to have a little flair into one's posts!

I still love my white!
Lol.

Noticeably, I even remembered the hex code for the red color I'm using... #b71f1e. x_x

[Kimmikoisabot]

[Ex-Member]

Hmm... this color will probably be my new color! To match my avatar image

[ThomasGross]

Fire Brick FTW!!!!!!!

Only Sarah could of guessed I wou;d pick this color!

[bob9007]

i'd have a green colour but 1)im too lazy to put the colour thing in all the time
2)it wouldn't show up that well.

[Ex-Member]

Testy testying Papaya Whip, and a few the colors on the green.

[Ex-Member]

Papaya Whip.
Teal.
Gold.

[Ex-Member]

Papaya Whip.
Teal.
Gold.
Slate Blue.

[Ex-Member]

Teal seems to reflect best off of the green, while gold is best for the black. Guess I'll stick with those two colors now. : )

Or teal for both. It does look nice!
