As someone who suffers from a common form of red-green colorblindness, I have to say this is a rather poor combination of colors to distinguish between different statuses. It's doable, but instead of a glance it requires a pointless amount of focus for me. The green specifically looks to me visually too close to both the other colors, especially to the orange one.

Re: Morrowind Definitive Edition
I was wondering if it might be a problem for some people, the mouse over text should help but I will tweak the colours a bit more.
I changed the colours slightly and increased the size to make it a little more clear, let me know if it is better for you now. Hopefully one day everything will be green and working.

Re: Morrowind Definitive Edition
The wiki page quite nice, but what about using different symbols?
E.g.: Star, Square,Triangle, Circle? It would workaround all kind of color blindness, even grave ones.

Re: Morrowind Definitive Edition
Actually, I think simple shapes like these might be a good idea, as it may be easier to recognize.
(Is there any reason why we shouldn't trim the transparent pixels?)

Re: Wiki page for Mods
In line with comments on the ultimate troll thread I have updated the symbols again, this time using different shapes for each status as well as colours.

Re: Wiki page for Mods
I think this is the best place to talk about mods on OpenMW and Morrowind in general. I'm going to lock the other thread after I merge some things over.

You forgot to make the background on Green.png transparent. The edge smoothing also seems to be a bit off.Tinker wrote:

Exactly, lovely. I agree with onionland that the background should be transparent, but it is really minor.
