Read about color psychology. There's plenty of studies on it and it's used in business marketing 24/7 by any company that is competent. Certain colors (red, for example) grabs your attention and associates feelings of power, energy, excitement etc. Red is probably the most used color in marketing.

Love this change. Honestly I was wondering why R00T were gray. Even L33T looked like a more appreciated user. I'm sure we'll get use to it.
I used to sell nice stuff on HF.

These days all I can offer you are my services as a software engineer and as a Spanish teacher. The later is a hobby I still enjoy.

Pm if interested.

The stars need to be changed to the neon green color too. Shit looks off as is.

Agree. They should be green too.

I agree as well. However, Ub3r stars should be blue then instead of purple! 🤝

I think that would be too much blue, don't ya think?

And I just disabled the online list for the site. So that's not a visual problem anymore.

I really hope that it doesn't turn into a rainbows land...

The only reason i prefer being more active here than other similar forums is the fact that is the chill colors and not having too much stuff happening at the same time, it just hurts my eye and it doesn't make it look Professional.

Yes. Purple is the intermediate of Red and Blue. Blue with Blue will be too much, Blue with Red won't look good.
Bleh
Honestly like this change But where has that online list gone my guy!

I'll consider options. But maybe they won't be stars. :)

I don't think it's over the top. I disabled the Who's Online list. If by chance the colors are too much then likely I'll just attempt to create new colors for the usergroups that are more subtle and matching like different shades of blue.

I've always been a fan of their other palettes too.

That doesn't match HF. And I personally don't like it.

I linked to the wrong one initially, sorry.
Correct palette was: https://flatuicolors.com/palette/de

Was mainly looking at blues, a couple of them looked decent on the forum. I really liked light purple and any of the greens as well.

I'm not really particular to anything one way or another though, just sharing what I think looks decent.


Actually applying it doesn't look as good as I thought it would in my head. Some colors were ok, but others were pretty far off when usernames weren't bold. You right.
No special little color for R3KT?

:(
