I've been updating the docs for my Goldie project in preparation of a new release, and figured the they looked a bit...sterile, so I've tweaked the CSS a bit. And, well, I think I've stumbled upon a heisencolor...(or a heisenhue, rather)
Without reading any replies or "cheating" by inspecting the pixels in a paint program, take a look at this screenshot: http://www.semitwist.com/download/goldie0.4docBeta.png ...and reply with what color you think the background looks like (the main background, not the sidebar). And whether or not you like it would be helpful, too, of course. And, strange as this may sound, reply again if you end up changing your mind on what color it looks like. I don't think the weirdness is from my CRT monitor (yea, yea, it's a CRT, "join the 21st century" etc...), because I've checked on someone's LCD and noticed the same effect. Secondarily, any other comments on the page would be appreciated, too. I'm not much of an artist or graphic designer. This NG does seem to be a good place to get many different opinions on a webpage's design. FWIW, I think I may increase the font size slightly and darken the BG colors a tad.
