....Perhaps it is just me: when I roll a hero, I create him or her against a nice soothing blue backdrop. A villain gets a dark red backdrop, less pretty but good enough.

Someone in Praetoria gets *shielding eyes!* a screaming yellow, glaring backdrop I all but have to squint against. I would say it is my monitor, but the rest of the game is fine.

Maybe tone down the gold, make it more of a neutral ochre....? Its interfering with judging how appropriate my colors are. PLease...? Maybe?

i HATE the glaring yellow -.-

can't see the numbers for height so have to do that from memory

power colours can't been seen properly, hell ANY colour can't be seen properly

I made a kin/elec armour stalker whos primary colours are soft yellow/purple and LUCKILY the combo was just right for hide so it blends in with the prestige power slide... other toons have not been so lucky and have been rerolled 5 or 10 times just to get the right colour.

Please Devs, take note and change that yellow! *puppy dog eyes*

I agree. I thought Praetorians would be purple, some sort of natural middle ground between red and blue. I end up having to turn up the darkness all the way when I'm customizing powers just so I can get a sense of what the colors actually look like. Unfortunately, this doesn't work in the costume creator (which I thought it did, for some reason).

Goodbye. Not to the game, but the players. Goodbye. Everyone, remember to have fun. That's all I can say.
