I know this is Lost Threads, but let's be more like 2003 and actually put effort into our responses, please.


I personally like blue and red. Blue just seems calm on the eyes (especially a purplish variant) and goes well with gold; red is a good offset.

I suppose it's more around "I like a lot of blue, with red for highlighting". Case in point, my layout image (the door itself is red, everything else is blue)... that kind of thing. Just good contrast, I guess...

Everyone seems to think that orange is my favorite color, mostly because I had a shirt I got in 8th grade that was (suprise) orange that was probably the shirt I always wore after that (minus when it was being cleaned or I was in the shower, etc), but that's more because that shirt was much looser and I like my shirts to be fairly baggy and loose. Ironically, I got two other shirts of the same color shortly afterward (and am still wearing one of them, the other got trashed), mostly because the original one was thrown out. My mom got sick of seeing it

Unfortunately, most of the other clothes I get are uncomfotably tight fitting (not even really tight, I just don't like them) so I rarely wear them.


But yes, dark blue/red can make for some good color schemes, and it shows -- I've used my current one for quite a while.

Ironically, orange is my favorite color. It's the color of sunset, the color of sun. It's also the color of admins. '-' It's just a color that... relaxes me. I also like the color green, because it's the color of life, and the color of grass.

Blue and most shades thereof, particularly navy-ish, deep blue-grey, and with a slight purple tinge. They make me feel calm and comfortable. "Night" is by far my favorite board theme solely for that reason.

Green is okay, but only certain shades/under special cirumstances. My entire website, for example, is green, and it wouldn't look right any other way. Forest green is a wonderful, soothing color, but olive green (or anything with the slightest hint of yellow, basically) makes me cringe. I'm glad I didn't grow up during the '70s!

Deep, woodsy browns are also okay, for the most part. My room at my parents' house had fake woodgrain paneling, and I always felt extraordinarily warm and comfortable in there.

Colors that make my retinas scream in large quantities:

- Burnt orange (again, '70s)
- Most shades of yellow
- Bright pink (I have to shield my eyes when I walk past Victoria's Secret in the mall)
- Most bright reds

A rather dark blue/green mix, and probably purple... though the latter's already taken by Ailure

I have a similar preferred palette as blackhole, except with light colors, not dark. (and again, except for purple, which doesn't really work if it's not dark.)

I mostly modeled my new avatar around those colors (It's Tatrion, the character, heh).

I my sky blue

It's such a nice, icy, relaxing shade of blue.

Also, bluish purple shades are nice.

I would have to say my favorite colour is green, it's amazing to see many shades of it in the summer when I hike. It's quite a sight to see.

Though a deep purple and a dirty gold have grown on me, but it usually does not look good unless it's on paper or clothes and not on a computer screen.

*Darkdata.ink wishes you could see some of the wonders in Newfoundland _¬

Truth be told, I always thought the color of the Hero characters in Starcraft were pretty awesome looking. Since then I've had a liking towards Teal, and similar shades and blends and stuff.

I could say blue, but I'll just say I like most "cool" colors. Blue, some green's, darker colors, etc.

I tend to wear darker clothes pretty often too. I never really wear black, but almost always blue or green and sometimes red.

I prefer Dark purple, but I doubt people are surprised. However I'm also very fond of... dark blue too.

But that's just what The Man wants you to think! "UV radiation is bad! Waffles are good! Don't wear white after Labor Day!" It's all a conspiracy!

Oh, they're good. That much is evident. But ... perhaps they're too good. Think about it!

... Wasn't I planning to sink back into the inky darkness of obscurity after one post? Damn, so much for that plan.

At this point you probably wind up being 1st place in todays ACS.

And it won't be too long until you know what it is. xD
