In which I spend a lot of time rambling about color preferences. 😀

Yes there’s a few colours I dispose of imediately I thought it was just Me 😡
Nope, definitely not just you! Looks like we all do it. 🙂

ah , i love pastels , but i was playing with realistic things before , so i delete them everytime i see them … and this is why my townies are corrupted … i hate NEON . those bright colors ..i hate them
Aw yeah, I’m not too big on neon. I actually like most neon colors, but they have to be used in moderation (like accents or trim or something). I can’t use entire walls or couches in bright neon colors, it hurts my eyes. 😛

Any neons or super saturated colours like the blue screen mentioned. Anything else is fine. If I could make my own palette, I’d make my colours muted and dusty.
Ooh, I think you should definitely try your hand at making a palette! I love dusty and muted colors, so I’d be interested in seeing it. 😀

Yep, as alienpod named it: the missing-mesh-flashing-blue (or blue-screen-of-death-blue) will never be tolerated in my game. It gives me the creeps. 😛
Yes! I can’t believe I didn’t think of that one. Which is a shame, because I like that color in real life. Seeing it on my screen, however, is a different story. 😛

Same, I don’t use a lot of bright shades. That pink and purple get tossed, and usually anything yellow or orange goes too (I love a good gold or burnt orange, tho).
Yes! I’m a big fan of orange and yellow, but I’m pretty particular about the shades. I love gold/mustard yellows and burnt oranges, though. 😀 (Those are two of my favorite shades to wear in real life, too!)
sullivanrandomness answered your question “Anyone else do this?”
Yes, there is a shade of purple that I refer to as bright/dark purple. It burns my eyes and I immediately get rid of anything in that colour!
I’m pretty sure I know exactly which shade you’re thinking of, and I toss that one, too! 🙂

I hadn’t really thought about it before, but I do tend to delete dark green stuff x.x generally if there’s a whole bunch of colours I restrict myself to one of black, white, brown, red, orange, yellow, light green, turquoise, light blue, purple, pink
Oooh, I love dark green! :3 But I find that it doesn’t always translate well in CC (especially furniture), so I wind up getting rid of it, too. It’s smart to limit yourself to certain colors – if I weren’t so indecisive and forever changing my palette preferences, I’d try to do that, too!

i’m the opposite in that i keep all my purple items, aha. i delete too light pastels myself, or dark earth tones
Hahah, that’s what’s so cool about the community! Everyone has such different color preferences. When I see people like @lilithpleasant or @dirk-dreamer use pink, purple, and pastels in their decorating, I always tell myself I should give it another try! But then I get in-game and hate everything I do and fall back into the same color schemes, lmao.

periwinkle is the worst, but that missing-mesh-flashing-blue is a close second
YES! ANOTHER PERIWINKLE HATER! I thought it was just me, like honestly I see that color everywhere and I thought I was weird for not liking it. Like, it’s not eye-searingly bright, it even looks like a relaxing color, but I just hate it?! And of course, missing-mesh-flashing-blue! How could I forget?
vampireprincessmaria answered your question “Anyone else do this?”
I hate certain shades of purple and turquoise. Unfortunately I do like light, bright AND dark colours, so there’s far too much stuff in my Downloads folder.
Hahaha, I’m sure there’s too much in mine too! A lot of times it depends on the CC, some clothing/furniture/deco looks better in bright colors, and some looks better in darker colors. For example, I tend to use darker/muted colors for my build mode stuff, like walls and floors. But I don’t mind some bright colors in my bodyshop folder or decorating. 🙂
soo-bee-well answered your question “Anyone else do this?”
I’m like this too. I always discard pastels, most neons, all oranges, browns and yellow-ish shades of green. >.<
I love orange, brown, and green in real life, but I’m pretty picky about the shades I used in my TS2 game. At least we know we have some semblance of self-control over our downloads folder – we can cull the colors we don’t like! 😛
holleyberry answered your question “Anyone else do this?”
That neon green. It hurts my eyes. Also that bright pink can go. I like pastels, but not bright, or neon colors.
Oh God, yes, that neon green! I don’t know how some people are able to use such bright color palettes in their games. A lot of the colors are pretty, sure, but my eyes! They burn! I sometimes wonder if it’s just my monitor, or I’m just getting old and my eyes can’t handle these things, haha.
