So I'm loving the new website theme and garry's mod HUD, but what's with the orange? I thought the community was called Limelight!

Because oranges and limes go hand-in-hand with each other.

The two small ones at the front are oranges and the back two larger ones are limes.

Limelight is our name. Limelight is a word and it is defined as "the focus of public attention".

Just because we are called Limelight doesn't mean that we should go with a lime-green colour. We did however roll with a lime-green colour in the start but the colour was just too sharp and didn't fit in. I personally find this new theme a lot prettier and easier on the eyes.
Sincerely, Enzyme

I am loving the orange forums and HUD, yet for those who want the "lime" in Limelight, could we have a green theme too? You can pick between the two at the bottom of the thread Smile
