Colour Scheme Discussion/Vote

[Sub Lord Hawk]

A place to vote and discuss on the colour schemes.
I've added six that I know of and seem to be major ones.
Obviously feel free to post a different one.

A poll about color schemes? This will end well.

Then what for you?

Ha I know, but it takes it away from the Map Thread.
(I need this stickied up)

I lean toward the CCS with elements of the MCS and RCS thrown in, but I hasten to add that I usually just use colour schemes as a starting point/guideline rather than a rigid template... Taking the time to make a damn legend/key clears up any ambiguity.

What?! No GCS inclusion?!

Post it!

I considered just posting the map, but with everyone having those nifty keys, I've decided to make on myself for it, so I can't post it yet.

Also, technicaly RCS, TCS and UCS are effectively the same thing, just updated, expanded or edited with new developments each time.

True dat. I use a mixture of these three. Although, I do see some very useful colours in the ANUCS.

While this isn't the most blatantly biased thing I've seen all day...

Whatever the hell he wants, as long as there's a key.

I like the Ad Hoc Colour Scheme. Basically you just make up colours for countries as and when you need them, and you're free to make up new ones - even for countries that already have a colour - and alter a country's colour however you want.

It's basically the same as not having a colour scheme. It works really well.

Agreed, I don't particularly like to use a colour scheme, it's just that I base maps of already coloured maps, so, why not use it then.

And also, I can't really choose unless the same map (say, of 2012 or so) gets posted in each colour scheme. It's far easier to see what I like.

But I suppose I won't vote anyway.
