When you go to find some colors on the markup thread, all of the colors are found in bold. Though, some people use colors without bold, and get a different result because of the thread. My suggestion is that an alternative color list is added following or preceding the bolded list, but that this list would not be in bold. Opinions?

Well,it isn't a needed feature but I guess it would be OK.

Can you explain why it wouldn't be needed? It certainly would be very helpful.

Are the colours bolded? I never noticed

I suppose the only reason they were probably bolded in the first place
was to make them stand out a bit more against the background, but
I don't think it's that necessary to have another list without the bolded
colours, as the colours are simply lighter than bolded, and you can just
judge for yourself at which colours you want to use not bolded, and you
can also make up your own colour names

Random numbers and letters make a colour

Hai Mike! =D

^ That colour was asdf

I agree with this. I'd kinda be nice. Some colors I only use in bold and I only use without, so it would be nice for people to see BOTH versions of it and pick out the one they wanted to use.

Maybe on the color list, it would have something like..

BLUE & blue
APPLE & apple


Maybe. It'd be useful though. I'd use it.

The colors are exactly the same. When they are bolded, there is simply a bigger letter that is colored, making the impression that non-bolded letters are lighter. Hence, a different list for the same colors wouldn't really be needed. But I do know that many people think that they're different colors when they're bolded, so maybe they should just make a not of that on the markup page.

But there still is a difference, and not everyone uses bold colors all the time.

Can you post a link to where there bolded??

Are you talking about the color list where it's bolded?

Yeah. Maybe something like Mousie said would be nice, like...

• • Apple
• • DarkOrchid
• • DarkMagenta

Oh wait, I just realized that it wasn't bolded. Oops. Heh. But..maybe those dots aren't the best example, because those this is supposed to be the same color, there is a difference:

• DarkMagenta
Toliu DarkMagenta

Since a lot of people aren't using the dots or bolded characters such as those, something to show the difference might be nice...like...

Bold --- Normal
• .......... Apple
• .......... DarkOrchid
• .......... DarkMagenta

If someone goes ahead and writes a new one up in that format, I'm sure that the staff would have no problem with replacing the old version.

How is this?

The only thing is, it is hard to see some colour names (on some browsers)

I thought of that too. Would it help if next to the colors, I put the name of the color in bold?

There's a lot of markup, it took up 2 posts. I think it came out quite nicely though. :]

Why don't you line them together?

Because of the different lengths of characters, I'm not sure I would be able to line it up. I could try tomorrow though.

No, no, no. The bolded words make everything look messy.

It's simple. If you have trouble reading something, just highlight it. You can put a little note at the top of the list to tell people.

IMO not a big need.

This is not necessary at all and also, the staff are as busy as can be right now with the bell shop and stuff so they most likely will now add this...  

^^^ A simple Edit is not necessary? If I fix it up some more it'll look nicer, and all that's needed is a quick copy and paste.

How can you say the staff is too busy to paste in a new list? It'd take 30 seconds, and look nicer.

Oh, and the first list looks much nicer, without the bold.
