Suggestion Custom Text Colors

[Thurion Heavenshield]

Admittedly not a huge issue by any means, but personally I find the default colors bland and lackluster. There exists the option to choose our own, but only through looking up color codes in advance and having to remember them for future need.

I'd love to see either an implemented color picker, or a way to save custom colors to the default list.

Or just a wider range of default colors to choose from, I dunno.

You know that you can just put in the HEX code, right?

That lets you choose any colour you want.

Yeah but who knows hex codes off the top of their head?

Just google 'hex colour picker' and you can do it right from the search.

Tef can confirm if there's a way to do an extra interface on the site, but that'll be low priority so this will get you by if/when you get the additional feature.

If you need a good resource for finding them, my favorite sites for these are:

Hexadecimal HTML Color Codes

html-color-codes.com

Paletton - The Color Scheme Designer

In love with colors, since 2002. A designer tool for creating color combinations that work together well. Formerly known as Color Scheme Designer. Use the color wheel to create great color palettes.

paletton.com

But if Hex codes give you nightmares, here's a resource with more memorable names:

W3Schools.com

W3Schools offers free online tutorials, references and exercises in all the major languages of the web. Covering popular subjects like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, SQL, Java, and many, many more.

www.w3schools.com

Agreed that a native color picker in the editor would be swell for most folks.

This might be a wee bit late but something that I've used for ages (Art Reasons) is an "Eye Dropper" Extension on Google Chrome. You can hover over colors you like and it saves a "palette" for you to use. It's in a different place on your screen but it essentially does the same thing. Just holds colors that you really like!

Link to Eye Dropper but you can use a number of similar extensions to get the same effect. Cheers!
