I've been complaining about this for a while, but this time I actually intend to do something about it.

We have both dark-colored and light-colored skins. We need to not use light yellow text in monobook, as it looks hideous.

Example: This is /say on a white background.

Notice how painful it is to read? Thus, I've created the classes text-say, text-emote, text-yell, text-whisper and duplicated blizztext as text-blizz. Take a look at the source to see the exact colors I have in mind.

Monobook	Monaco
Say Yell Emote Whisper Boss emote Blizz	Say Yell Emote Whisper Boss emote Blizz

I need suggestions for the colors. Monobook's 'say' and 'whisper' lines bug me the most. --k_d³ 20:43, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm trying to stick as close to the colors blizz uses in-game as possible. --k_d³ 02:23, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Meh. I'm happy with just dropping the values by 100 or so on the white skin. Anyone have comments? --k_d³ 02:35, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Seems clear to me.
