signature colour

Olo! (megamind for the win :p )

Not sure where this should have gone, it's not really an urgent problem.

I'm in the middle of making a signature, and I'm not sure what colour the background is on the message tile??

I used to be able to go to page source or something and rifle out the colour, (or at least that's what I think i used to do) but the knowledge has left me. Can anyone help please :)

Regards,
Allan.T

Hi Bastet.
What software are you using to get that Hex code?
Thanks.
I am using Photoshop CC2017 and getting a different Hex code.

Hi @DOUGIE, It's an Apple Store app 'Colour Name', it can take colours from a photo & tell you the information I posted, it also tells you which complimentary colours go with the colour you choose. I took a screen cap of the forum & choose to scan the background of the message not the op sig which is white.
I used the app to discover the correct hex for the 9th Doctor's TARDIS colour for my desktop theme.

Oi gerrof my picture :p only joking.

It's a different colour because I used plain white, my sister came round as I was halfway through the signature, so I stopped where I was and uploaded. so the code you'd be picking up is #000000 also with the overlays and lighting fixtures, there should be a very slight gradient of whites in my signature. Maybe thats where you're getting your different colours from :)

Whats worse about this whole situation, is I could've C+P'd the image of PCHF and just colour picked the background.. I need to go back to school.
