Description

On selection of any text shows with blue background and white font color, like shown below :

It looks much better if I change it as per our color theme. I have made it light green background and white font color, like shown below :

I need some reviews/suggestion on this. :)
Does this look good ?

sexy :-) ship it!

Sorry for my late reply. I took your screenshot and shown it to the editors. 75% are more likely to choose the blue because of the readability. By the way, I like the green selection :)

The code is:

::-moz-selection {
  background: #67b03f;
  color:white;
}

::selection {
  background: #67b03f;
  color:white;
}

I can try to do a pr for it

Could you try with a lighter green?

the question is what type of green? :-P

exactly. The community like the green. Could you try different tones?

I think that the green of the links is perfect that the color of the screenshot

for branding reasons, I think it should be WikiToLearn green... so, if you make sure it's the right color, @mte90's seems great!

Well it's enough to use the right green, actually on the website there are different green.

I would say: just take the light green of the logo and apply it: then consider this as an official "Ship it!" from the graphics department ;-)
