Title: Link colors
Post by: TehBorken on Jan 24 07 02:38
I'm not happy with the link colors here...anyone wanna suggest some colors for "unread messages", "read messages", and "hover"?

I'd suggest the best colour EVAR for a hover if I knew what hover was. [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/froehlich/e006.gif" border=0]

[FONT color=#60bf00]Unread messages[/FONT]......[FONT color=#ff0000]Read messages  [/FONT][FONT color=#000000]?[/FONT]

.....and hover should be the colour of a hummingbird [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/froehlich/e021.gif" border=0]

I like the blue for the hover.

  I also like [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #800000"]dark wine red[/FONT] for the unread.

That's a hard one, TB. I know because I always agonized over the link colors when I did my website. Just something that won't glare at you too much would be nice. Lavenderish?

Hmmm, well, I may try some color combos in the next day or so. If they don't look good we'll just go back to the current ones.

These colours:
Seattle Seahawk colours:
[span style="text-decoration: underline;"](//vny!://www.fansinthestands.com/WA/seattle_seahawks.jpg)
[/span]

the dark blue/teal would work subtle but you'd notice a difference.

Oh, the Seahawks. You mean those overpaid, whiny, steroid-sucking, egotistical, loud-mouthed  babies who get paid way too much money to play a children's game. Those Seahawks?

Lemme think about it....mmmm, no.

I'd have sex with Rosie O'Donell before I'd use Seahawks colors on this site. And I'd do it without the benefit of beer or other mind altering substances.

It's simpler that that.  Green.....GO have a look.  Red....STOP.....you've already been there. [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/frech/h040.gif" border=0]
