I got a complaint, so I'm asking the general populace of this temporary MH what I should do about my text color. I was thinking of using teal, but that has been hard to read for some. Hence, this poll.  What do you think my text color should be? Should it be bold? Italic? Glowing?? Shadowed?? If glowing, what color should the glow be? What colors are good in combination with glowing letters? Do you even care? Should I learn Spanish so that only a few know what I'm saying? What about WingDings? (Just threw this one in to see how many people prowl their Fonts folder) Should I just stick to VC?  |

awwww  - it wasn't a serious complaint old boy  But if you want to be ostentatious, the size of Mel's text is good along with the glowing bits |

Stick with something bright, but not glaring, is my advice. Do NOT, under any circumstances, choose yellow, pink or that ugly light blue-green color.

I believe the consensus is that teal blows big chunks. Oooh... I got Mel to say my name 4 times!! Wish I was like Beetlejuice... ;-) |

Wish I was like Beetlejuice... ;-) Yikes...but not like Candyman, I hope...  *casts furtive glances all around and shudders* I do like the colour Teal, but it is simply illegible on the dark background... maybe if you do a glow in a different colour around it? |

Not to worry - I believe Candyman's name had to be spoken into a mirror glow would be good though |

Umm if anybody can be arsed to look up the fader colour codes for a better back ground colour I will try it, but im tired, the coffe I got from the shop was crap (they did not have my normal brand, its been ages since I last had A drink/a ciggy(we're talking weeks here)/ or got laid, so I am a bit too cranky to look, if you wish to save some newbis soul from my wrath suggest some colour codes.
You know the ooeeff type codes bloody things.
Other than that RK if you go with Windings you will make more sense than you have done in a loooong time

I never really tried, but is it possible to use html tags here anyway? Most of the html colours don't work with the glow button, for some reason. Oh and Koth, don't bother with the background, I think it looks fine and you guys are great for making a replacement board anyway!  |

What do you think my text color should be? -Hmm, *ponders* ... *thinks* ... *considers* ... Well, my conclusion is that I don't care. Should it be bold? Italic? Glowing?? Shadowed?? -See 1 question higher If glowing, what color should the glow be? -See 2 questions higher What colors are good in combination with glowing letters? -See 3 questions higher Do you even care? -See 4 questions higher Should I learn Spanish so that only a few know what I'm saying? -See 5 questions higher What about WingDings? (Just threw this one in to see how many people prowl their Fonts folder) -Go for it! Should I just stick to VC? -See 7 questions higher ;D ;D |
