I'm still trying to figure out a system that would allow you guys to customize it as you please. As of right now, changing your avatar will change the signature colours.jhjoseph91 wrote:Why can't we customize it? ;-;
The background colour is picked from coordinate 0,0 (the very top left corner) of the avatar.
The text colour is picked from the dead center of the avatar.

Hmm, that's interesting. Maybe you could average a few color samples taken from various places?Sebastian Lawe wrote:The background colour is picked from coordinate 0,0 (the very top left corner) of the avatar.

What happens if the colors are very similar?

I suppose I could technically try averaging colours, the trouble is finding consistent math that works for every avatar sampling.Entity wrote:Hmm, that's interesting. Maybe you could average a few color samples taken from various places?

In terms of similar colours, the text colour is inverted within a certain tolerance if the colours are too close together.

Another random idea: Maybe instead of picking both colors from the avatar, somehow pick just the main "theme" color, and find some algorithm to calculate the complementary color. That way the colors would always look good together, and yet still be related to the avatar.Sebastian Lawe wrote:I suppose I could technically try averaging colours, the trouble is finding consistent math that works for every avatar sampling.

Just a random suggestion tho

I considered that at one point. I'm thinking that the complimentary colour should be similar, but vibrant enough to differentiate from the background as opposed to being completely opposite however.Entity wrote:Another random idea: Maybe instead of picking both colors from the avatar, somehow pick just the main "theme" color, and find some algorithm to calculate the complementary color.

For example, this website is blue, and the text is a lighter blue.
