Make the errors #c40, the red that scratch uses.

It seems your topic is in risk of getting closed because it focuses on more than one suggestion.

Not really.
This is suggesting to change the same shade of white on orange to black on orange due to readability, which is used in two places.
Generally, I should've titled it “Change text color on scratch-www errors to black for readability”. I'll be retitling it later on.

The current errors, having white text on an orange - Blend in a bit too much, and have a bit of a WCAG fail.
Like the title suggests.

Mockups:

I feel like black on purple is actually kind of harder to read

Oh whoops - That one's an accident. The color rule is shared with the login one, that's just a mistake on my end.

Can't fix it right now, I'll add a disclaimer and fix that later on.

Better mockup.

That shade of red is not used on the site anywhere…?

The closest is scratchr2 comment errors, but those are not #c40.

Also - I'd rather with staying to high contrast block colors rather than red. For me, that white on a shade of red still blends a bit - I'd rather keep this topic on changing the text color rather than the background.

It's used as the message count background colour in the header of the messages page.

@rosics you've posted asking people to change their suggestion to use that shade of orange at least six times - you know there's no single correct colour, right?. 1 2 3 4 5 6
