Unrelated, but imma steal that 2000th post
Someone ask a mod to delete a random post before that one.
I just want to give people a pat on the back for getting this thread to over 100 pages, I think it's cool that we managed to keep a general discussion thread going this long without it getting shut down and I has been serving a neat purpose!
So, we're looking to change the link colors on the wiki, as several people have complained about it being hard to tell the difference between non redlinks and redlinks, as they are both red.
We've come up with a few ideas, including purple, blue, green, orange, and gold. Obviously, we are up for more than these colors. @retep998 and I are leaning way far away from green, orange and purple, as purple is just insanely clashing, green is too christmasy (I know, me, against Christmas-like stuff? Strange...), and orange is just plain awful.
Retep has been giving me an insane amount of puush links for various colors and pages:

We would greatly appreciate feedback and stuff for this, as we are having a very hard time deciding. Also, if you want to play around with some colors: http://puu.sh/bbUfs.txt
Aaaand if anyone gets mad at me for posting this here, #Blame @trajing [14:54:11] <trajing> Anyway, I don't think anyone would mind if it was asked in the RED thread.
Edit: added more purple screenshots

Retep and I are really against purple... We're leaning most towards blue, just waiting on some more input from this thread.
If you choose pink purple I will find you and I will kill you.
I like blue a lot, the purple looks kinda ... to neon, a darker shade would work better imho.
@SatanicSanta blue has my vote as it stands out the most. Some of the others are either really hard to see, or just look awful. Green is a bad idea due to red / green colorblindness. I already cannot tell a difference between the current links and don't want others to have the same issue due to this.
We could always just highlight the non-existent links in a nice, ugly green, since that's how I currently have it since it stands out to me.
Edit: Dammit I think I have some minor colorblindness going for me, since I just looked at another one of the green links and can't tell the difference. So yes, please go with blue.

IDK about you guys, and from what I'm reading I'm alone here, but I sure am digging the gold.
Also, Mekanism Build 92 does NOT, in fact, solve the conflict with Redstone Arsenal.
Blue. Defitely blue. It stands out the most, and doesn't interfere with color blindness.
As much as I like the purple, it's far too vibrant and distracting.
I prefer the blue, personally. I like the green as well, but obviously colorblindness means that option's a no-go. (Also blue, red, and green ARE technically the FTB color scheme if the official logo is anything to go by... )
