Has the color for "Dev Team" name just changed ?

Post by Koub »

Or is it just me ?
Right now, it looks like a #C850F0, and It seemed to me it was more a #FF20FF (from memory) before (I mean this morning).

like This color maybe
Or maybe Image alien artefact purple? Image
I think I forgot a </sarcasm> tag a few months ago... :lol:

But it actually looks pretty fitting, now that it is darker than earlier today.

Yes, this purple is not really readable. Try to raise the brightness a bit.

Here are four color values:
color: #CC29CC;
color: #DC39DC;
color: #DF3CDF;
color: #E93FE9;

The first one is the original one, that color is used in the moment. The other are brighter versions of that. See the attached picture for a comparision. I prefer the last one.

The red color mentioned by Smarty would also be an alternative. That kind of red is often used for admins in various locations.

Greetings, Nova.
Factorio is one of the greatest games I ever played, with one of the best developers I ever heard of.

I prefer the last (lighter) one. I find it more readable on the grey background of the Factorio Style.
Alien artifact purple seems OK too. It looks too bright in the "quote" box, but on the darker background where the user name is usually writte,, it should be nice (again with Factorio style, which should be the only one used here :))
