As many of you know, the colour yellow is extremely hard to read on a white, forum background.
This ill legibility extends to the cyan colour as well.
I was thinking, why can't we have these "Font Colours" be changed, so that we can actually use them?

We can keep the white font colour, as it provides many benefits.

I think he posted "What about white?" in white writing, and then he saw that you'd edited, so he edited too, saying that.

He said "Really wow thanks" first. I'd forgot about the white writing so i'd included it.

Oh, well I don't know then 
Nice idea, BTW.
It's annoying when noobs make their text bright Cyan or bright yellow.

Yeah I agree. And it's really surprising since Lucky is a noob and I haven't seen him use those colours yet.
I kinda just like White and Black.

Really why just white text? Wouldn't shrunken text work just as well?
phpBB 2 does have spoiler mods. But there's also this workaround if spoiler mods are never going to be installed.
| Code: |
| [quote="Spoiler"][color=white]Text.[/color][/quote] |

What about allowing the hexidecimal colour codes used in HTML? That would allow people to use any colour.

Maybe because overuse of colours is frowned upon?

Well, we can already use those, but for the tab, i was thinking of changing those colors so that its much easier to read and use.
