Color of catagories #1

Closed mlambert74 closed 6 years ago

mlambert74 commented 6 years ago

Just wondering if someone can change the colors as they are very similar and tend to blend.

Apologies...not a coder but love this site!

Thank you.

IJMacD commented 6 years ago

Thanks for the feedback.

I agree the colour choice isn't ideal! In this version I wanted to emulate as closely as possible the original newsmap.jp right down to the colours.

In a future version I could allow customisation of the colour scheme/palette.

Hi Iain, Thank you for the response.  You rock! I'm not a code person but simply love this site...I use in my classes at school frequently.  If possible, it needs a stronger diversity of colors as we show the various interests from different countries. Know you are busy and I'm not sure how

I know you said you weren't a coder but if you're able to come up with a set of hex colours, I'll include them in a future version of the app.

Hey, if you check out the site now you should find the option to change the colour palette.

I've included your colour set as one of the choices.

Obviously I don't expect anything in return but if you're serious about making a donation, an Amazon giftcard would definitely be appreciated. (IJMacD@gmail.com) Don't feel obligated though!

Hi Ian, Somehow I lost your email as I would like to send you an Amazon gift certificate. My apologies for my lateness. Again, thank you! Michael l.
