[edit] Paint schemes & markings

Not sure my experiment (displaying the names of colors in color, i.e. dark blue, yellow, etc.) works. Is there any way to make the lighter colors render so that they are readable?--Lordkinbote 09:25, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

I was just thinking that yellow is a little hard to read against a white background. I'm tempted to say that we shouldn't use colors on the text, but let me mull over the idea a little more first. B-) slambo 15:20, August 21, 2005 (UTC)
The fact that there are color photos and/or links that depicts each of the color schemes ("worth a thousand words") does make the use of colored text in this instance less necessary.--Lordkinbote 17:39, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Links removed due to blacklisting

I've removed two items from the References list that I originally added there last year. The site where the information came from has been blacklisted due to spamming. We should easily be able to verify information from the other numerous references listed here (aside: we need to work on adding inline citations to this article anyway). See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Spam#Suite101 dot com for more information. Slambo (Speak) 17:58, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
