color change proposal

[edit]

The "firetruck red" color scheme is harsh and nerve-rattling. I am not a partisan for a specific alternative color scheme, but *anything* has got to be better than the extremely harsh red. Can someone with expertise in web design please provide some input? Can someone please propose an alternative before simply reverting the template back to the "in your face" red? Thanks! dr.ef.tymac 03:57, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not really an expert but I believe that the red "firetruck" scheme is standard for all Level 5 babel languages. I'm sure someone will pop along to explain it in more detail, but for now it should be left the same as is the standard. — Manticore 13:32, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think there should be a change in color. The scheme on the category page is more pleasant, and might alleviate some of the snob-/elitist-factor discussed on its talk page. RJC Talk 01:43, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is no such thing as "standardization." wiki will rest where ever its users choose. fr-5 is not red. level 5 does not exist for many languages. it-5 is red, but not the same red as en-5. the discrepancies continue. i'm going for some martha stewart colors that are popular here at wiki--Hollerbackgril 21:06, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent change. RJC Talk 03:53, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Follow-up: Thanks for getting rid of the ExTrEmE rEd. It was harsh and sorely in need of change. If anyone feels the need to change it back, don't do it. Just stare at this message for a few seconds ... There now, annoying, wasn't it. dr.ef.tymac 21:15, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed, many times it was proposed to change the colors of the Babel system (Wikipedia talk:Babel/Archive2#Level 5 colors is the most recent one with proposal for new colors). Apparently nobody ever gave a damn. But the current colour scheme is nonsensical. Army1987 11:29, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
