What color is your pew pew gonna be?
Yellow Spines anyone? Banana/Bright Armor Scrapper
Dark Blast + Bright Yellow = Solar Blast?
It's amazing how much more I care about this stuff than i15, had my account DC'd since about 2 months ago, will likely pick it on up with customization.

My Fire/Fire/Fire will be going white.
My Psi/Mental will look for the most invisible color possible (probably the middle grey) since her blasts are supposed to be more force than mental power.
My Electric/WP brute will make her Electric attacks bright blue, like electricity is supposed to be.
Beyond that, most of my other characters I'm happy with, or they use weapons.

Actually, I'll be trying to find a combo that will be as invisible as possible. I kind of want my radiation attacks to be more "heat shimmer" than color.

No... What you want is a turquoise to blue-white color, as in this image or this image -- the Cherenkov secondary radiation from the passage of the actual radiation. That's what I intend to do with my Fire/Rad controller; the actual radiation will be invisible, but the Cherenkov secondary emission will be highly visible.

Even though I don't play him much, just for cuz he was my first 50, I will make my Nrg/Nrg's secondary Blue to match. I love the natural Fire/ color with the /MM secondary, but I will be making a Blue Fire/ Blue (or white) EM blaster- Finally creating the very first character I ever created in my head from an early age.
Active 50s:
Zero Defex: DP/MM//Mace Blaster
Mutant X-7: Fire/MM//Mace Blaster
Running my Kin/EA gloriously
Come on I21!!!
Sure, the devs are supposed to listen to their customers, mister business 101 out there. And if I decide to start suggesting that the devs change the game from being about superheroes and supervillains to being about clowns that is my right as well, and technically Paragon Studios is supposed to pay attention to me. But I hope strongly that they assume a meth-head somehow managed to hack into my forum account and make paper airplanes out of my posts, because I hope they recognize stupid when they see it. I assume they will recognize futile just as accurately.

My pewpews are normally brown.
Had to say it. I apologize.

oooh. nice. thanks for posting those. I'll have to keep that in mind.
Writer of In-Game fiction: Just Completed: My Summer Vacation. My older things are now being archived at Fanfiction.net http://www.fanfiction.net/~jwbullfrog until I come up with a better solution.
My Ice/Elec/Elec, changing the Electricity to a whiter shade of yellow.
My Elec/Men/Fire..as weird as this might sounds, I was hoping to go for a clear, whiteish color. For all of the powers.
Not changing colors on anything. If it's more than a powerset-wide palette shift, I might consider it, but I've got alts to level and IO and it doesn't matter what color the stuff I'm flinging at the bad guys is as long as they die.

My Fire/EM Blaster main: Purple Fire and Punches
I'll probably leave the rest default...I only wanted color customization for that blaster.
50s:
Liberty - SS/Stone, EB/EMa, EMe/ELA, FiC/Kin
Triumph - BS/Regen
Virtue - FiB/EMa, Ice/SM, SS/WP
My EM brute's pompoms are switching to yellow. Power of the sun in the palm of my hand FTW!

Characters
My level 50 Energy/Electric/Electric Blaster has always had a purple & white color scheme - so her blasts will now coordinate with her uniform.
Psi may also end up being purple as well, or I may leave it pink.
White hot fire may be the best for at least one of the fire blasters, but I'm leaving my fire/ice blaster with the traditional colors.
I'm still playing with ideas for my sonic girl....

Since everyone seems to be going for yellow snow I'm doing brown Energy.
Red! One of the proud colors of the Soviet Republic.
The people will always need a champion, comrade.
I hate to be a downer but have any of you perhaps considered that Color Proliferation might be like power proliferation? In that only a few sets will be changed at a time? BAB's has said about a bajillion times that it is a lot of work to fix the color system. Maybe there will only be a partial fix.
On the up note...Black Fire FTW.
Don't deny the awesome.

My Ice/Psi will probably be keeping the same colors (her costume matches them already). My Fire^3...may have to go to blue to match her name.
Suggestions:
Super Packs Done Right
Influence Sink: IO Level Mod/Recrafting
Random Merit Rolls: Scale cost by Toon Level

[/ QUOTE ]Doubt that, as one of the reasons mentioned for the elemental weapons not being customizable is that they wanted the whole powerset customizable at once. It'll be all or nothing, or I'll eat my hat.

I'd put my money on them actually finding a coding work around for having a costume slot with either 1 or 2 color choices that the animations (now with a costume sensitive variable) draw from. The question of whether we get 1 or 2 colors is probably a question of whether BABs and the other animation/graphics coders have found a way to use a non-saturation system for the colors.
My eng/eng will go with a yellow/orange theme.
I'll probably keep the ice powers the same. It would be cool if I could make her travel power the same color. In my mind it's an ice slide.
My fire/ice blaster may get a more blue/white coloring for his fire blasts. I'll have to play with it to see what looks right for him.
My Arch/ MM will probably get what ever color ends up closest to invisible for his MM secondary.

Me Too!
My energy blasts will be PINK! Like Sister Psyche... that cheating wench!
I think the bullets in my dual pistols will stay the same color.
Every time i see the name of this post i cant help but giggle. and my colors will depend on what i am.
I'm a Mac user, no Mid's for me
Green Fire Blast. Purple Psi. White Dark Armor?
