Talk:Colored Pencils

Quote text color

I'm aware it took one hour for the user to change the color of the quote to match how it looks in game, however compared to how it looks in-game it's actually pretty difficult to read. I don't mean to be disrespectful but I don't think we should be going for this sort of thing and just have the quote be normal so that it's easily readable.

Maybe there could be a hover with the same text but normal? Technetium (talk) 16:08, September 2, 2024 (EDT)

I would say, keep the text black, but just show a screenshot showing this is how colored pencils talk. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:13, September 2, 2024 (EDT)

I think the idea is fine; probably the reason the text is more readable in-game than here is that (a) the colors currently used by the article are approximations of the colors shown in-game, and (b) the text box whereupon the lines are overlaid in the game is a light shade of gray instead of pure white. I support keeping the letters colored, but like, more accurately to the source material. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 16:19, September 2, 2024 (EDT)

Edited the quote using colors extracted from a screenshot using the eyedropper tool. Note that it was a screenshot from a YouTube gameplay video, so who knows how truly accurate these colors are still, but it should be more palatably executed nonetheless, I think. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 16:37, September 2, 2024 (EDT)
