View Poll Results: What text color should I use for my posts from now on? - Voters
- 60. You may not vote on this poll
-
Original Color (I bet this gets like no votes)
-
Nave (the color of the post)
-
Blue (normal, not light)
-
Dark Red (sort of Burgandy)
-
Indigo (I'd call it dark purple if that existed)
-
Purple (the same amount dark but a little less blue than the Indigo)
-
Dark Green (about the shade of British racing green if anyone knonws or cares what that is)
-
Black ( please any other choice would make me happier but vote for it if you want, black bores me)
-
Other (please name color/explain)
-
Poll is flawed (explain, although I'm not sure how that's possible)

Array My New, Finally Readable, Text Color Okay, fine, I'll give it up. Anyway, due to common suggestion/demand, I am changing my text color so those other than people with very good eyesight can read it. The colors in the poll are colors that I have personally deemed easy to see and read, as well as ones that I like . Anyway, vote for your favorite for me to use from now (I'm using navy for this thread) on. Any other suggestions will be taken into consideration but they have to be on the text color pallete. Gracias -

Array If you want to be really unique, change your colour to #000001. That way, it's not black but is still really easy to read.

Array I was going to chose black, but considering your comments, it seemed unlikely you would take my advice. Beer, it's whats for dinner! ~ a young snowboarding Canadian The meek don't want it! ~ sticker on a rock band's guitar -

Array Any color listed above is fine except the stupid day-glow blue you used to use! I like the navy. Thanks for changing it! "Being a good feind is like being a photographer, you have to search for the right moments." -

Array I like the nave. It is mash butter "The pen may be mightier than the sword - except for in a duel."
"I had to get up in the morning at 10 o'clock at night 1/2 an hour before i had to go to bed, drink a cup of sulfuric acid, work 29 hours a day down down mill unpaid and have to pay for permission to come to work and when we came home our dad and our mum would kill us and dance around on our grave singing hallelujah!" -

Array You have no choice for 'white', and it doesn't qualify under the 'other' option, either, because white is not a color.
Therefore ( you knew this was coming ), the poll is you-know-what. -

Array Thats becuase the only choices here are ones that have been deemed readable and that sjpfencer220 likes. Clearly according to sjpfencer220 white has failed one of these qualifiers and is hence not a valid poll choice.
You'll have to find another reason the poll is flawed -

Therefore ( you knew this was coming ), the poll is you-know-what.  Furthermore, we the voters are biased since this color of his post is also one of the "candidates." The post should have been composed in a neutral color. Frank Pratt

Array If you mustmustmust use a color other than black, then nave gets my vote - purely for the typo. I had always pictures knaves as being associated with reds, but apparently I was wrong. -

Yes, the water cooler! It's this really cool place where people can discuss things that have nothing to do with fencing. -

Array Poll is flawed because it's goddamn ridiculous.
Even for the WC this is a waste of time - go fence instead, people. "First, second, third, dead f***in' last." - Greg Glassman -

Array Heh. It may also be worth noting that all of your clubmates, except for me, have voted for black. Use black! Seem less attention-seeking! Don't get beat up after practice by squinting annoyed teammates! -

Array Pick your battles and stick to 'em. Do not give in to black! (but READABILITY is a good thing.)
(Wow... this just seems like such a wasted post. I really said nothing... meh) Nevermind.

Array I really liked your original font.... "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. And from this side only! The flight of a half-man, half-bird. Dinosaurs nuzzling their young in pastures where strip malls should be. Cookies on dowels. All those moment, lost in time. Gone, like eggs off a hooker's stomach. Time to die" -Phil Ken Sebben -
