Sorry, I wasn’t very precise. I agree that the GCompris colour is orangish, i.e. somewhere between yellow and red. But it’s a light/pale orange, more like a shade of apricot (though I don’t think apricot is the best name either). Amber is *usually* taken to be a vivid, bright colour, just like the natural material amber. I don’t object to the colour being used in GCompris, just to the naming. I think it will be confusing for kids using GCompris that ‘amber’ refers to a colour very different from the colour people *normally* think of as amber. For example, in the UK, the middle colour in traffic lights is referred to as amber. But the colour is obviously very different from the the colour in GCompris. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
