thanks to @PMunch we now have a nice image from which to pick from (currently) 
valid colors for github: 
[https://github.com/PMunch/colourfinder](https://github.com/PMunch/colourfinder)

In the image the blacked out areas are those that color-proximity test in 
linguist would declare invalid. This is based on CIEDE2000 color distance, see 
[https://github.com/pietroppeter/color_distance](https://github.com/pietroppeter/color_distance).

My proposal would be to use #ffc200: 
[https://www.color-hex.com/color/ffc200](https://www.color-hex.com/color/ffc200)

  * it is in the middle of the spectrum (full saturation).
  * it is between Yellow (color of crown) and Orange (Araq's favorite color).



**Note 1** : to pick a color I used: 
[https://pinetools.com/image-color-picker](https://pinetools.com/image-color-picker)

**Note 2** : I was not able to use the `.. raw::html` rst directive in forum to 
add `<div style="background-color: #ffc200; padding: 10px;"></div>`. I am not 
sure why since the rst parser seems to support it, maybe it would be fixed by a 
forum update or maybe I just did something wrong.
