I remember that back on '95 with the "Colosseum" pattern running through it.

Brings back memories of Sim City 2000 ( for some reason released well before 2000) and Age of Empires. Oh and who could forget Worms.

Good times, good times.

I like clear with a piny scent, but I'll drink red, brown, tan, and things with bubbles in them.

Not even through hex codes? (Hex code color chart)

Nope, I just can't get the right richness of color on an LCD screen. It's sort of the color you get when you paint phthalo green watercolor on a white sheet, and sort of like traffic light green, but less glowing? I stink at describing colors, but let's say #009944 but less dull. Anyway, what I see on my monitor isn't what you see on yours, probably.

I vote red. Like the rich, deep red.

Purple, though most people would assume my favourite colour was black - most of the contents of my wardrobe is black.

I could have sworn that that originally read "Like the lich, deep red"!

I assumed you were just having a poetic goth moment when I first read it!

I think to add interest to this thread we should come up with more specifically-named shades of the common colours. Here's some I've come up with.

Conservative Party blue
Radioactive green
Congeled blood blacky-purple
Suggestive dress red
French chemical experiment orange

Sorry, I must have gotten that one confused with your sister. I put up an accurate one now.

Crimson or Sapphire Blue or a Blackish Purple that I often use as a custom hair color on my Oblivion characters.

I like.............

Every color except barf-green and fluorescent colors. See where my problem with Glass armor came from? Apart from it glowing in the dark.

What about "Decaying Squirrel" Greeny-Brown? "Fatal System Error" Blue (aka "Sure Hang on a Minute Just Let Me Save This Project I've Been Working on For the Past Four Hours" Blue)? Or "So That's Where the Bread Went" White, Black, and Green?

I've always been partial to "Oh Right the Steak Was In the Oven" Black myself- lovely balance of shades in that one.

Varicose vein violet has a nice ring to it

I always called it Manishevitz.
