What color should our background be?
Permalink Closed

I have been changing the background colors here for about a week now.
I have asked for feedback in the Chat Box, but decided this was the better way to go!

It's up to you! What color would you like to see here?
I have narrowed it down to these three colors. Once that has been decided, then I can play with the shade variations!

Let me know what you like! Right now is the "Khaki" shade I was referring to.
It's actually pretty nice. This color is similar to the default color from Activeboard, but it is a bit darker (Better). I am also considering grey tones, as well as tan/dark tan tones.
I am avoiding Blues, Reds, and any other Green tones (They are being used elsewhere!).

I discovered this darker grey/green playing with the color codes.
The grey code, and the "putty" I had before were pretty close other than the last two positions. Playing with letter/number combos yielded this.

A little darker than the shade I had before, and close to our original "Khaki", but darker!
So, do you like grey better (Maybe even a darker grey), or am I on track with this?

I have not ruled out a tan/parchment like shade either!
