Dead link in profile options...

[Naeniver]

First off, I have no links to share, since its within my profile options and such a link probably wouldn't work for anyone else (since no one else is logged into my account :D ).

After a long break from modding I've returned, and I wanted to change the hideously pink layout of my profile that I made a few years ago. I went to my Control Panel and then to "Edit Profile". In "Additional Information", way down at the bottom, at the box "Profile Override Colours" there is a link for an HTML color chart. That link is dead. :(

Creators with more than 10 uploads only! Enter, 1 per line, hex codes for the profile overrides, in order: Caption bg, Caption text, Border colour, table background, button colour, text colour, link colour. For a chart click here (http://www.webmonkey.com/webmonkey/reference/color_codes/)

Now, yes, I realize I can (and will right now) go elsewhere on the internet to get a color chart while I update my profile's appearance. However, I thought I'd mention this so that the mts admins can get a new color chart to link to. ;)

Yes you are correct. That link leads to the original webmonkey page - which they removed.

In the meantime - they made a new link - which is handily on the same page as the "dead link" - even more handily called "color codes". So hopefully you won't have to trundle very far.

We will get the link updated.

Thanks, and not too far at all. I have this that I use a lot for other things: HERE (http://www.computerhope.com/htmcolor.htm). :)

BTW, this only shows up on a member's own profile (not other people's). The "View My Scorecard" button always seems to have a dark box behind it and I can't read the text of that button. How do I get rid of that without changing the color of link text elsewhere? Before it was a hideous pink/purple color, now its a dark gray, and the color that it has doesn't match ANY of the colors I put in for other fields. All seven color fields in my Profile Options are either 2B60DE or E3E4FA, and this new dark gray color doesn't match either of those two. *baffled*
