Why such limited colors?



Asked: 2000.11.06
Name: Shimmer
Question Title: Why such limited colors?
Category: Items
Question: I'm just curious as to why the colors of many items are so limited. For instance, what is the point in not having as high a range of "clothing" colors as you do for armor? Why restrict robes from being black, white, pure blue, etc? And why only three colors for dye? Since it can't take alot of coding time to add a few colors to the list, it seems like you deliberately want things to have only a few colors. Why?

Answer: Actually clothing has a much greater range of colors than armor.

And dyes are being introduced slowly, not all at once.
