Color Testing

[duskfur]

Not everyone uses them but I for one am obsessed with using colors for speech in posts. But then again, sometimes a color looks like crap or is unreadable against the skin. I found this list on another site (I did not compile it, so I take no credit for it) of pretty interesting colors to use that are words rather than impossible-to-remember hex codes. xD

No, not all of these look nice, and a lot look nearly exactly the same. But it's a great reference against the skins being used. ^^

...You got a lot of time on your hands, Dusk

That's really helpful though, I don't like having to be limited to like "lightblue" or "limegreen"

This thing is so useful whenever skin changes.
