Currently we only have blue and grey for the background of text and amazon boxes. I'm sure people would appreciate a larger range! I have one hub in particular that could benefit from a soft red background on some text boxes.
I'll second that. The blue doesn't really stand out that much. Would it be hard to do?
I'd like to be able to give them a holiday theme, especially for posts about the holidays. Really, it would be great if we could upload our own background as well as choosing a colour/ background from HP. It could have the same functionality as the background we use for our HP profile now.
It's a good idea! Matt M has already started an internal thread to discuss it.
We've got a lot on our plate, work-wise, so no promises, but if it's easy, hopefully it can be slotted in. Thanks for the suggestion!
I agree. It would be great to have a larger Color choice on offer!

How do you make those nice, neat text boxes with the colored backgrounds in your articles?I love them! You really organize the information nicely. Maybe this is a dumb question (lol) but I can't seem to figure out how to make those cute, useful little text boxes. Thanks!

The new Amazon buttons look nice, and will supposedly promote clicking through, but they can wreck havoc with the appearance of a hub. An amazon capsule floated right, next to a text capsule, and the same length as the text is suddenly longer with the additions of those buttons. This...
