    I dunno - just something contrasting, so you could sorta mentally blank out the ones you're not interested in. Maybe blue and red?

    I hate to nitpick, but that's not really "contrasting".

    You really want to pick colours on opposite sides of the colour wheel. If there are four colours needed, then spread them out equally around the wheel, like cutting a pie into quarters.

    Pink and Brown would be a better contrast.

    Oh, and for those that can remember year 9 art, "contrast" really refers to shades (black and white), whereas "complementary" refers to opposing colours around a colour wheel.

    That's a common criticism.


    That, and my Nazi-like punishment of people who confuse there/their/they're.

    When it was initially discussed, it was agreed that two colours were enough (I had suggested more).

    I have a suggestion. It's called reading. I don't see a problem with telling the two apart.

    I do have a suggestion of taking away the hyperlink to the threadstarters profile right below where you click on "go to the last unread post". I look like a stalker as I am constantly clicking on these.

    But surely having different colours would make it so much easier to see what was still for sale and what wasn't

    Looking through the pro-shop thread now is like looking at this
