A dark yet beautiful and nice shade of green could be Forest Green. It has deep, rich tones that evoke the feeling of a dense forest, and it’s elegant and soothing without being overwhelming. Another great choice could be Emerald Green, which is still dark but with a vibrant, almost jewel-like quality. It gives off a luxurious, natural vibe while remaining calming and deep. These shades strike a balance between richness and beauty.
This is a block for you to look at for its colour-think about it a bit more dark,though.What do you think?

I reccomend searching up Forest Green and Emerald Green on the internet first though.I'm not also sure that Scratch will accept blue because they changed the theme of.Also,we might have another option for turqouise.
its a light green??
I apologise that I couldn't find a dark coloured block with white writing.But,from searching in the internet,I think a light green navigation bar with a light green colour and black writing(with the font options for dyslexic people)will be a great idea.

wait its light for me becuase while creating my last project i turned on high contrast for fun. i did know it affected forums.

yes its dark.

Here is a ‘form’ I made:

Colour:Seafoam Green
Colour of text:Black
Text:Open Sans(maybe not the logo)
Text size:12-14 point or equivalent (e.g. 1-1.2em / 16-19 px)

Guys,I have found and rearranged a project where we can look at the colours we've chosen.We can't choose anymore options for titles,though.

That would be amazing there could be like dark green background then light green leaves it would be so detailed. Then there could be like an ocean theme and themes then you could also get light or dark mode

Bump above post(s).
We seriously don't need to get into an argument about crediting, do we?

i mean not really but having custom styles beyond a nav bar and general theme is overengineering it badly

Please correct me if I'm wrong, or if I don't seem like I've been paying attention to the discussion, but…

From what I understand, this was meant to be option-based, not strictly set to any color. From what I understand, your idea is to set it specifically to seafoam green.
Pardon my saying this, but I doubt most people are going to be happier with such an… exciting color.

Personally, I'd like colors based on the block themes. It would be customizable: a palette based each block category's standard color. For example, “Motion” would be like the original 3.0 colors.

go to (header v)

The current colors, meanwhile, could be from the “Looks” category. This can be the default, as the entire point of changing to purple was for standard accessibility.

switch backdrop to (nav bar v)

It would also allow colors like “operators” and “sensing”…

([color v] of [green]::operators)
(This feels calm::sensing)

…and even, if you'd like, some colors only seen in the forums

snip ellipsis gray::grey
unknown red::reporter

Or, at the very least, these could be presets, with a hex picker or CSB sliders for custom colors.

(::motion)(::looks)(::sound)(::events)(::control)(::sensing)(::operators)(::variables)(::list)(::extension)(custom::#aae33d)::grey

It looks like the quoted user is suggesting that all of these be different options, so each individual user can pick the color that works best for them. Instead of the bar at the top being the same color for every user on Scratch, each user can go into their settings and choose from one of those colors, inspired by the different block types in Scratch.

You are correct. That is what I intended. Thank you for clearing that up.

it's supposed to be any colour but also display options to the user as suggested colours

support towards the use of colours of blocks, very applicable to scratch
