St Mungo's color is not awesome:



the userbadge is maybe okay but doesn't look very good, but the color when you tag someone or when they like something is pretty hard to read. And then if people use that color in their post templates as Bean does here you can see how the dialogue disappears xD

Chiming in just in case this would mean a graphic edit to the SVG; that should be easily fixable if I can get ahold of the file from Olive Ursula Black)

Honestly not crazy about doing this, I'd rather tweak the background color on that skin so there's slightly more contrast. I don't intend to make dark skins with backgrounds any lighter than that. If St. Mungo's is lightened it'll end up being London color or very close too it and then picking out a new color that doesn't work horrendously on other skins or look too similar to an existing one... We have so many usergroup colors and that's a useful and good thing but there probably will always have to be some skins where the color contrast - possibly depending on your screen settings too - isn't as amazing as it could be. I could look into finding an alternative like a drop shadow effect or outline or something to guarantee contrast.

Thanks to Bee for this magnificent set <3

I will be recoding the DP templates at the end of the month and addressing tables in staff posts, WW is fixed already. The post icons should now be fixed, I'd already coded for it but left one line out.

Going forward if people are making posts with either a light colored background image or a light background, please set the text color (color: #000 so it's legible for all users.

First post of absences / anywhere we use that template (I think it's a lot of our Charming-account-started threads).

The new dark skin is better for this IMO! I really enjoy the chocolate.
