Okay, so I'm going through my friends list, weeding out some folks I'd added who hadn't added back, or who just don't post anymore, and I'm thinking "Colors." Specifically, what colors each friend should have on background and text on my friends page. I've colored some of you, but not all. And now I want to update all of you on my friends list and color code you to something more appropriate to you.

So, if you have an opinion as to what colors I should use (foreground and background - pick 'em both from the LJ listing of colors) for your friend list icon thingey, let me know.

Well, I'd prefer dark green or blue, but it looks okay (hehehe)

Okay, so [livejournal.com profile] chat got green, but I also want green. Just make it a slightly different shade... Then, whatever text color is easiest to read... (see, I AM becoming more, ummm, versatile!!!)

Hmmm... if there's no yellow or taupe that is closer than, yes, of course orange will do.

Thanks! *nuzzle*

What I/'ve Do/ne

What I do right now since I use the Refried paper style and it doesn't need colors: don't bother.

What I prefer to do: pick a color that a person Feels to me. It's like an aura interpretation, but I also take into consideration their color preference. And I put it on a black background and either don't use colors that won't show up, or possibly use white. Or I do the same thing with a white background. Then communities get standard black on white or white on black. Reeelly special people get the same, or they repeat. If I made them as a friend of a friend, I reverse the colors (black on the color that the original friend has).

I usually get really anal about it and use a notepad file and a list of the colors. That way I don't repeat or get confused. Very time consuming.

What I've seen done: pick a color combo based on groupings. Communities get color on black/white. Local or close friends get xcolor on ycolor. Long distance friends get acolor on bcolor.

If you choose to use my preference: Blue Medium on white or black. I generally like royal blue or shocking blues like cobalt, cornflower, or Dodger.

*shrug* And I wonder if I should be a librarian? Gee let me think. /Sarcasm

Hmmmmm. How about Ocean Blue with White text?
(I really should do the colors on my friends list! Almost no one has any right now. Shame on me.)

hmmm

*silence*

I lived my life in shadow
Never the sun on my face
It didn't seem so sad though
I figured that was my place
Now I'm bathed in light
Something just isn't right

I'm under your spell
How else could it be
Anyone would notice me?
It's magic, I can tell
How you set me free
Brought me out so easily

I saw a world enchanted
Spirits and charms in the air
I always took for granted
I was the only one there
But your power shone
Brighter than any I've known

I'm under your spell
Nothing I can do
You just took my soul with you
You worked your charm so well
Finally I knew
Everything I dreamed was true
You make me believe

The moon to the tide
I can feel you inside

I'm under your spell
Surging like the sea
Pulled to you so helplessly
I break with every swell
Lost in ecstasy
Spread beneath my Willow tree
You make me complete
You make me complete
