<PRE>Patricia Fraser a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> Hi all,
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Discussions are happening in the Artwork and Marketing lists, please
</I>&gt;<i> join in!
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> There&#180;s a resource here for putting together colour palettes:
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://colorschemedesigner.com/">http://colorschemedesigner.com/</A>
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> If you play around with palettes (use all the resources), there&#180;s a
</I>&gt;<i> clickable link generated on the right side that you can post to the list
</I>&gt;<i> with your suggestions for use. Please use it!
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> We need to come up with an official palette for Mageia, for the Artwork
</I>&gt;<i> team, and on the same principles as for the logo (see here):
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=artguide">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=artguide</A>
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Remember, we need to stay right away from the Mandriva colour scheme,
</I>&gt;<i> not to mention the schemes in use by other distros.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> We&#180;re looking forward to your input!
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Cheers,
</I>
I have some ideas, but the resource given doesn't let me select only my 
2 colours, and trying 3 (ignoring the middle colour) didn't work very 
well with my mouse and level of manual dexterity.
(The &quot;clickable link&quot; didn't work for me either, but maybe I tried the 
wrong link.)

I think that these 2 base colours would be very good together :
#0066aa (a blue similar to that of Mandriva) and
#00cc00 (a light green).

The effect of these 2 colours together would be very different from 
those of Mandriva.  The green is a refreshing colour that would be good 
as the main colour, as an accent, or shared on par with the blue.
If one of the colours is to be an accent, I would rather it were the blue.
If only one of the colours is selected, I would prefer the light green.

As well, I hope you stay away from selecting (ugly) red/brown colours.

my 2 cents :)
