Am I the only one who thinks that the pink/purple "nation color" looks just plain horrible? I hope I can change it with some editor..

I really don't see the problem.The only reason why collorcod is used is to make it possible to quickly recognise the civ,so the more different the color the better?or am I wrong??

Yeah, I really hope there's enough colors to not pick the pink one for some nation.

My civ will be a mighty one, I will not have it associated with "cute"

I think Firaxis has made some weird choices when it comes to civ colors, the purple and cyan is plain ugly!!

I'm sure it will be possible to change them though

So now we are arguing about civ colors?!?

Well, this is a good sign that people are pretty much excited about the game (except for those waiting for an update on MP ). Since people can't pick out any real flaws in the game, they still must argue about something, right?

Well, this is trivial at best. If you don't like pink, go to the editor and do whatever you want. I don't exactly like pink, but I'm too lazy to do anything about it. Just as long as MY civ isn't pink!

nah,it isn't totally useless,it just shows that some ppl can't live with the idea that their civ could have pink flags.

Hey! What's the problem with purple? I happen to like it. In fact, it's my favourite colour.

Admittedly that's an ugly shade of purple. It'd be much better if Firaxis can make it deeper.

Oh, the All Music Guide is by far the best reference work on the net, period. It used to be pretty crap (it's servers were absymal), but now it's both fast, accurate and totally comprehensive. It also hyperlinks exceptionally well. I do wish it'd have some sound samples (there are servers for that sort of thing to link to) and an advanced search facility, but still, it's the only place for accurate discographies on the net and it's pretty well-written too. Probably my most visited site after Poly and Google.
