Posting in color?

Why do those of you post in color, post in color? What's your reason for doing so? RoaCh of DisCord, Darkmatter, Pains Requiem, and a few others. Why do I do it? To match. Death is black and whie, and figuring that Black is more of the color of her, as well as the forums, I post in white to match my avatar and signature. Makes sense? Why do you post in color, if you do?

I find people who post in color just do it for attention or to be noticed.

I despise it, but people do it anyways. I still <3 most of them.

It's not like many people can notice white text from default text. In all honesty, I think most people do it to match their ''theme'', such as their avatar abd signature.

In general I do not see why anyone would consistently post in color. Yours does fit nicely with your avatar and signature though. What is your signature? As a wild guess I'd say it's a picture of Adam and Eve, but I'm pretty lost.

It's Dream and Death from the Sandman Series. Same with my avatar. Dream/Morpheus is the guy, while Death is the girl.

I tend to forget a lot, but when I do post in color, it's usually in a color that matches my avatar and signature.

I post in this color theme because I like the way it looks, and it matches my avatar color theme...I've always liked red and black, they're my two favorite colors.

Pink is such a lovely color. However, this isn't your typical pink. It's deep pink. That's right. It's deep, yep.

I post in colour all the time...it's a signature thing. >.>

I like this colour. I like purple, and it goes well he dark background. So I usually pick avatars whose colour schemes match my text.

I try and let my words do the talking rather than a color. It's a great idea for the girls though. For the most part, I actually know the sex of the person I'm talking to.

The ladies post in awesome colors. I didn't know Deep Pink existed as a color until recently. I alwyas figured it to be hot pink. Kitty uses the same color as the Forum Elder Color, and it always matches her theme. I'm also pretty sure Cobalt Posts to match her avatar and signature as well. It's good on the eyes.

I had always wanted my text to fade from red to white to blue, but I don't know how to make a script like that.
