Template:GCW

From Unofficial Handbook of the Virtue Universe

Purpose

GCW is a variant of Template:GC (for "game color"), a template that lets you easily insert the hex values of costume palette colors from City of Heroes into your pages, to easily match up page styles to supergroup or costume colors without having to dig up the exact hex value yourself. All values were set based on ParagonWiki's Costume Colors/Palette page.

This variant of the template is for use with widgets such as Widget:GrooveShark and Widget:Formspring, and excludes the # when including their color values. This can also be used with any template that allows custom colors but includes the hash mark as part of the template itself.

Usage

Wherever the hex value would appear, just insert this template as follows:

{{GCW|A1}}

Replace "A1" with the 2-3 character combination shown on the chart to the right, letter then number, or determined from looking at the color's placement on the palette in-game and assigning each row a letter (A to P) and column a number (1 to 10). Defaults to A1 (black).

Example:

<div style="background:{{GC|B5}}; color:{{GC|A10}}; border:1px solid {{GC}};">This is an example using the fifth red for background, white for text, and black for a border.</div>

Will render as:
