Venom it is. Used a site to get the code and name off of it. It's labeled as "Venom Green" so that's what i put down.

http://www.computerhope.com/htmcolor.htm dropping a link for reference. Can also put in the codes to see nearby colors.

Cool, all set then.

██ Kuuskytkolme: Lime
██ RoboticLIN: Venom
██ Diaeresis: 408000
██ Teceler: Forest
██ Diaeresis: 004000
██ Alicorn: Green
██ Lambda: Teal
██ Kel: Cyan

408000 is too close to Forest, but the other one looks good. Moss, for the name?
On further examination, 004000 is really hard to see: 006000 instead? It's still dark enough to have that as a defining characteristic but it stands out from the black better:
██ RoboticLIN: Venom
██ Teceler: Forest
██ Diaeresis: 006000
██ Alicorn: Green
██ Lambda: Teal

Hmm, I find the black background kind of aesthetically displeasing anyway so I'm inclined to try to find a different shade.

Lapis (#15317E)? Blueberry (#0041C2)? Lotus (#6960EC)?

Is Sepia (#7F462C) Sepia distinct enough from Ade's Brown? Or maybe Wood (#966F33) Wood? Is the latter too light?

██ Anya: Lavender

I think lapis conflicts with midnight, and blueberry might be confused for blue if Aestrix doesn't have any threads active at the time. Or possibly even if she does. Also I like lotus.

Here they are in situ:

I also like lotus! I was worried it might conflict with lavender but it doesn't look like it. Yes please, let's go with that one! (Plus I like the name, so bonus.)

██ Throne3d: Carmine
██ atheistcanuck: Sepia
██ Adelene: Brown
██ atheistcanuck: Wood
██ PlainDealingVillain: Tan
██ ErinFlight: Copper
██ Anthusiasm: Orange

Sepia conflicts with brown less than wood conflicts with tan and copper, probably, but neither of them is great.

Can I request that the HTML color codes go next to the person's name in the color index, for ease of people that would like to use the colors to color things?
