    Public opinion about donator

    Well, I've talked with several people about it, I've tested it out a little over here using the built in element inspect function in Chrome.
    Of which, most of them agree with me on this.

    I know it's not my place to tell anyone to alter anything, but I'll have to ask on a larger scale.
    Who here find the donator tag and color very unattractive? I understand the thought behind it, I assume it was going to look like gold.
    It ended up looking like barf-yellow, and that's quite unfortunate for those that did donate to the page, not only because we spend a substantial amount of time here, but we wanted to help the page out. Not saying that's why everyone donate, I donated for that and the avatar size.


    So lets run this down.

    Who here thinks that it's time for a change on the donator tag?
    You can also motivate your choice if you like, I encourage that.

    Here's my idea, instead of trying to have it look like "gold (Barf)" we could have it look like platinum (gray-ish).
    That way we get a change, the color isn't occupied and aesthetically it's more pleasing for the eyes.

    I have also heard that it has been brought up before but ended up being hassle for some reason.
    But I think it's a possibility that we could have a "dropshadow" underneath our name to make it easier to view a gray color ontop of a light background as well, I know it's possible, I've done it. (css: text-shadow 0px 0px 3px #cdcdcd (or any other color darker than the base color))

    Here's my example. Ignore the fact that it's missing an icon, I just didn't quite know what to put in it right off the bat, a dollarsign seems a bit cliché.


    Please vote.
    Thanks for reading.

    Personally I'm not a fan of brown-ish colors, but that being said.
    It's a bit close to contributor.

    It's not really a problem, it's more of a "It could be better" thing.
    But hey, that's my opinion.

    I think the donator needs a boost your rep power a little bit.

    I like the silver one. Staff Admin is grey but nobody ever sees it because Liz is a princess.

    I've always hated the color, I agree its time for a change.

    The grey seems nice, easy to read and not an obnoxious color. Also like the tag better, Dona Tor just sounds off. Don Ator is closer to how its actually pronounced.


    As for @.Razer 's idea, I like it as well. Just making it darker. Simple, quick, yet effective. Easier to read, keeps with the "gold" theme.
