Background color of sim #87

Closed amanda-phet closed 7 years ago

amanda-phet commented 7 years ago

84 made me double-check the green background of the sim.. thinking we could change it to coordinate with the nice-looking dark green buttons @pixelzoom suggested. I noticed that the green in the sim doesn't look like the green in the mockups, so, I'm calling on opinions regarding the background color.

(1) is what my browser picked up as the current sim color (2) is what I had in my original mockups (3) is a new color with less blue in it that could go well with dark green game level buttons.

@jbphet @pixelzoom @ariel-phet @kathy-phet @phet-steele Any opinions?

Either 1 or 2 look good to me. I don't like 3, a bit too yellow, looks a little sickly.

I feel like 2 doesn't have a good enough contrast with the gray coins. So I prefer 1 over 2.

1 or 2 look fine to me, and since @kathy-phet said 1, I can just plan on that. Which, I think, means leaving it as it currently is in master, right?

Sounds good to me

amanda-phet commented 7 years ago

Yes that's correct. Thanks for the input everyone.
