Netscape palette | Greyscaled |
---|---|
: It was long ago that I began thinking about creation of a special style for the Ladoniaboard. Now that the background colour has been explicitly set to white and readability dropped almost to zero, I think the time has come.
: I somewhat modified the Ladonian coat-of-arms to make it fit as a background image. As you see, I created two versions of this image. The "Netscape palette" image will look unchanged on any machine with 256 colours and upwards. The "Greyscaled" image is viewed best on high-colour/true-colour machines, and is somewhat changed on 256-colour machines. If my proposal is accepted, our Minister of Internet can decide which image to use.
: Other colour combinations, which I propose can be seen on the large sample image. The HTML codes are as follows:
: BODY BGCOLOR="#000000" TEXT="#FFFFFF" LINK="#00FF00" VLINK="#FF0101" BACKGROUND="dragn16m.gif"
: Header: FONT COLOR="#008000"
: I feel that this setting will give Ladoniaboard an improved personality, make it special, and last but, not least improve the readability of the text.
: Well, dear fellow citizens, what do you think about my proposal?

First of all I canīt see anything on the
netscape palette and the greyscaled one, it's
just black. Probably I have not the right
programmes and computer to see what dwells
behind the black and I will not be able to
invest in new equipment for a long time yet.
Let everyone be able to see.
When I saw this new white background I was
very glad. It had a positive effect on me
visavi the earlier grey. A black background
I think, would be darker than this light one
and definitely not easier to read, just as
Nemolon mentioned...sorry Nemo to say
