Main Colors

(logged in / not logged in)

Background colors

(disabled buttons, buttons, backgrounds)

Light colors

(Passive icons, notification and button borders, metadata, time-stamps)

Subheader colors

(Subheaders, links, visited links, icon focus)

Title colors

(and body colors)

When using color combinations the main D-CENT color must always be the dominant one. Keep the ratio at 80-20 or better, 90-10. When ratio for any reason is closer to 50/50, (eg. voting pie chart) use a lighter version of one, and a darker of the other.

The Header

Is Always Darker Than The Subheader

Magenta combinations are only for special highlights, like visited links, rather than for general purpose content / material. Unvisited links should always be in the D-CENT color: #007E84

Instead of full black, we use a #222222 / RGB 34, 34, 34 to soften the look slightly. Otherwise, feel free to use blacks and gray-scales in any combination with the other colors. For grays, the ratio can vary from 50-50 to 80-20 (gray-color). Be wary of too much black as it can easily get too heavy. For print use straight black (0,0,0,100) and keep the ratio 50-50 or ideally 20-80 black/color.
