this is not a joke: If it wasn't the Green, I woulnd't be here... It was this strange hipnotic green that made me remember of the "strange game that matched its strange green"

And maybe cantr sun is green? 8)

cantr is commonly refered to as " the green screen " in my house. now if you could customize your own background THAT would be cool.

i haave at times seen the screen go white and peoples names are a blue color instead of the usual greenish color. ( assuming that it is a " greenish " color and not a light brown color. i am color blind....actually it's more like color stupid :P)

Actually it's orange. I don't think I've ever run into a color blind person before. How is it like?

Depends on what kind of color blind you are. My friend who's singing along to Europe's "Final Countdown" right now has the bright-green kind of color blind. He sees most colors perfectly fine.

sometimes i question whether i am simply color blind or just dumb. i mix up obvious colors depending on their shade. these are the colors i mix up often.

( blue and purple) ( green and yellow ) ( red and orange )

also i HATE the colors pink and tan. i NEVER guess correctly when it comes to tan. i'll say it's either gren or brown. and a dark pink color looks like purple to me.

the main thing that sucks about being color blind ( or color stupid ) is when i try and play war games. when the enemy is red it is difficult to tell where they are on the mini map when the ground is dark brown, especially when there are other objects like tree and stuff. the same thing goes for when i send ships out to sea when i am blue. they might as well be dead if they go anywhere else aside from point A and point B.

In Firefox you can turn off page styles and get a neutral white background, but then you cannot see which characters have new events without hovering over the icon.

Thanks for the suggestion - I'd forgotten about that. But it looks too weird that way. I need the green!

green is the best color, it isn't gender biased, it has a relaxing effect (which is one of the reasons plants or landscape paintings are suggested in places people should be relaxed an one of the reason parks are necessary)
losing the green screen would be an absolute tragedy
