Artist Group

Unread post by Wain »

I'm going to create a "Petopia Artist" (or some name like that) group, with its own name colour. Anyone who contributes their art here is welcome to join it, though of course you don't have to.

But what kind of colour would you like / use? These aren't your only choices, just ideas:

Out of personal preference alone, I really like the last four colors you offered, Wain! But I like warm tones.

I should also mention that I’d prefer it to not be too close to the existing group colours, so not too similar to the hunter trainer blue or the new pet finder green. It also needs to be a colour that will,work in both a light and dark theme (so not horribly light or dark).

I went ahead and took a snip of the text with each board style to compare them all:

Imo one of the purples or dark orange work best as the yellows get lost in the lighter themes, possibly even worse on white in those styles whose posts alternate background. Monitor settings may vary. My personal favourites are the first and second purple and dark orange.

Rest in peace mum. I really did love and miss you, even if I never got to see you.

Oooh, thank you, that comparison is really nice!

With that in mind, the second, third, and fourth colors are my favorites.

Oh awesome! Thank you for making those :)

I'll wait to hear back from others as well, then create the group.

Is "Petopia Artist" good for the name?
