better than having two colors clashing in any 7-8 player game.

also the black stroke ensures that the number is visable in both light and dark backgrounds.

what if we had a green that was similar to the darkness of blue instead?

that could work as long as it wasnt to dark to clash with purple

acctally green may not be so good with aqua and a green already there.

not convinced, clashes with blue like i feared. A darker oragne/brown might work thou. can you upload you PSD and let me have a shot

What's the hex on the green we currently have? That one should be fine.

by **gimil** on Fri Dec 21, 2007 3:09 pm

Here's the rgb hex for the current colours...

' .playerBG0 { background-color: #999; }
' .playerBG1 { background-color: #F33; }
' .playerBG2 { background-color: #0C0; }
' .playerBG3 { background-color: #33F; }
' .playerBG4 { background-color: #FF0; }

SO with the addition of 7 and 8 player games, the army colors have been edited. I have seen several other threads discussing this but I wanted to try and get an opinion with a poll. The last three colors tend to blend together a little and I don't know if that might add to the confusion during play.

I have made up 5 alternative color schemes for the 8 armies. Please vote for the one you like the most.

If you like a combination of several different ones please vote accordingly and explain your choice.

Is that 3 digit hex the way he codes it?

by **gimil** on Fri Dec 21, 2007 3:20 pm

well thats rather silly . . .

unless they all automatically end in "000"

by **Coleman** on Fri Dec 21, 2007 3:21 pm

That's so weird, WidowMakers and I voted for the same thing, assuming he was the first vote.

Nope...

Actually it works like this...

#999 = 999999
#F33 = FF3333
#0C0 = 00CC00
#33F = 3333FF
#FF0 = FFFF00
#0FF = 00FFFF
#F9C = FF99CC
#F60 = FF6600
#C09 = CC0099

They're shorthanded codes...

Check this...
