Your input requested
I need a little help on a big idea I got this afternoon. I have decided to re-paint the interior of my toy store. And well here are some of my color choices.
I figure the wind-up toy area should be a light purple background with fusia colored shelves. The rubber stamp cases a hot pink. Same with the board game area. I would contrast it in the jigsaw puzzle area with a lavendar shade. I will probably have to leave my walls green though, because I can't move all the fixtures by myself. What do you all say to my choices?

I really dont know but if you will paint to pink I'm sure that the entmoot moderators will love it.

Are you also seeing the pink and green entmoot!!!!???
In my opinion the two do not go. I would suggest painting the green over with blue. If you can. Cheat and paint over the fixtures.

Purple? Pink? Alright, confess! You made this board look all weird didn't ya? (Just a joke)
Purple is good, I don't think much of pink but that's a matter of taste. Don't use clashing colours. They should go together well even if they are different. Perhaps a few touches of blue would be nice.

It's not on purpose, I'm sure. The files holding certain graphics seem to have corrupted, or something of that nature.
It's especially amusing since I was discussing the colour pink with a friend of mine, and eventually convinced her to change her website to a more suiting colour. I logged on here and screamed at her.

Let's just say my choices were inspired from on High (not while). I really need certian areas to jump out at the customers, you know grab them by the throat and make them look at things they've passed by before. But I want them warm and welcoming at the same time.

I don't know why you folks are trying to blame someone. There's a problem in the Vbulletin database, and the main entmoot Template has gotten all screwed up. We're working really hard to try and fix this, please be patient

I don't blame you for the surprise colours, Tater. I even find them amusing and not that bothering. And I have every confidence that you and the other admins will get it back the way it was. I don't mind waiting for it. How's that for a moralbooster?

But for a toy shop, pink and purple would be okay.

Ok folks, I'm working as hard as I can to fix this. The Vbulletin database that Entmoot uses seems to have gotten a mind of its own. It's actually begun changing the user titles! The tech guys are just as flabbergasted as I am, but they're doing their best to try and fix it.

Now I am thinking that my ceiling should be a light sky blue with a semigloss finish. It's an old stamped tin ceiling from about 1890. It has aflower patern stamped in it.
I must admit this, I am becoming addictedto the pinks and purples. Think I'll run over to the hard ware shop and grab some color charts. Perhaps I'll scan them in and let you all choose the new colors.

Apparently computers are a lot smarter then we give them credit for, though even the programmers were baffled by this sudden change in the database.

Is the sudden colour change going to suddenly go away? For the shop, i recommend not sice these bright colours are making me feel dizzy.
