07:17:26 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> Gm, I'll answer you in bullet points 07:18:09 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> What do I think of white bg/lighter colors? 07:18:10 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> If we started from scratch, I'd be fine with a lighter background; it wouldn't hurt. We didn't create these videos with GetMonero in mind and haven't received any feedback or comments about this in previous videos. Considering we already have done 3 videos with cohesive branding, it would take many hours to remake them with white backgrounds. Do I think it matters? 07:18:12 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> Thumbnails are the first impression people get from the videos. These thumbnails have nothing to do with illicit use, underground, or anything sketchy. 07:18:17 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> https://matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/v1/download/matrix.org/myzZuRgSfpJzrVwjyiwrPRpg 07:18:19 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> https://matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/v1/download/matrix.org/qIAHVkFdZlwRciYcaWWBzMgE 07:18:21 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> https://matrix.monero.social/_matrix/media/v1/download/matrix.org/FhBMWzgvHIrwzPRmYrwlkLYL 07:19:29 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> The video has a darker color scheme, but the illustrations, voice-over, and music are all friendly. I don't think it's an issue. My conclusion would be that if we started from scratch, I'd be fine with a lighter background to embed it more into the website. I don't have a strong opinion on it, but considering the time it would take to remake, I don't think it's worth it. 07:20:05 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> A pretty good compromise now when I think about it, is too lighten up the thumbnails in order to embed the videos to the lighter color scheme of the website, this we could do pretty quickly and it would not be as "intimidating", thoughts? 07:20:21 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> Gm 07:20:41 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> What do I think of white bg/lighter colors? 07:20:42 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> If we started from scratch, I'd be fine with a lighter background; it wouldn't hurt.

BG alone is not an issue 07:26:29 <m-relay> <ct:xmr.mx> For a light theme website light thumbnails would be nice, if you embedded it between text sections. If its more like a video library you could "dim the lights" for that part of the website, ie. by fading background to darker colors 07:26:48 <m-relay> <ct:xmr.mx> redoing all the videos in light theme would be a waste of time 07:27:30 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> Is the plan with the updated website optional light/dark theme? 07:28:03 <m-relay> <vostoemisio:matrix.org> I haven't been keeping up with the discussions 07:30:09 <m-relay> <ct:xmr.mx> no concrete plans yet I think. Some people desperately want a dark them, but tbh light them + dark reader works perfectly fine and is no extra work 07:30:21 <m-relay> <ct:xmr.mx> no concrete plans yet I think.
