dang these colors are too bright for light mode for the new free multi charts :(

@Sinclair Time for a new vote!

democracy has fallen. by @SG's command I have seized the color list and will now impose my will on the people. (until someone else imposes their will after me)

@Sinclair

...did you keep the eggplant on purpose?

@Sinclair I have paid good Mana for this outcome. I demand my rights!

@AlexbGoode you have the right to submit a pull request

Can I suggest, given that this result is both funny and awful, and that the site is going through a day of introspection over attracting new users, that instead of being a one off this vote is conducted on a quarterly basis?

@JoshuaWilkes

Actually this question may have shaken my belief in the concept of democracy itself.

@JoshuaWilkes Agreed. I think the brown/yellow combination still unfortunately looks like a pee/poo combination and should have at least one color in the middle to break it up.

@duck_master

If i were working with just the top colors here, I would personally go Blue, Yellow, Navy, Brown, Eggplant, Blood Red, Pink just for contrast. But I should probably not be listened to for a variety of reasons

@JoshuaWilkes just open a pull request XD

@Sinclair what is a pull request? :o

It's a work of art.

I didn't bet on this because I didn't want to take the time to find the proper hex values for the colors I thought would be good. I am sorry, if this is my punishment, then I accept it.

alright @IngaWei what's your favorite color here? that isn't octarine or ๐Ÿ†

@Sinclair I think I'm gonna be basic and go with sky blue, followed by grimace purple since I can't have ๐Ÿ†

@Odoacre while "eggplant" may be a shade of purple, the color "๐Ÿ†" is anywhere from a pale white, to a tan, to an olive-tinted beige, to a dark brown

I very much appreciate the opportunity to create some chaos, but if you want sane colors maybe have a look at https://colorbrewer2.org/#type=qualitative

@AlexbGoode

These seem nice.

is this really the future you want?

@Sinclair please no

@IngaWei I do like the contrast in the latter half but the start is too dark, and the blues are next to each other...

@Sinclair yeah latter half is fine ig but the beginning just looks like a pee and poo concoction ๐Ÿ˜ญ

@IngaWei don't worry the blood can be brighter. more of a tomato juice stain

@Sinclair
Full disclosure as the person doing the most trading here: I am literally colorblind.

@Joshua good. this is your chance to make the site accessible
