Iris comes close enought
Mauve maybe. Hard to choose all so good
I did a lot of my youth aging in the '90s and my father helped design our house. But my father's sense of style was eternally in the '60s - '70s. About a third of our house was mauve. Mauve carpets, mauve bathroom... Even a pink fucking toilet because "they didn't have one in mauve."
Anyway, good choice!
Orchid and/or Palatinate
Wildberry
Iris for sure, that's the color I set in SC2 when I played Zerg
Midnight, Iris.
From yhose, violet and psychedelic, the rest are too dark or too cold
Eggplant and midnight are both very nice
orchid <3
I sorely miss periwinkle here. Iris and amethyst are close enough.
I never claim to like any single colour.
It always has to be in contrast with something and depends upon the context.
For example in a GUI application, if I am making thin lines on black background, I would go with higher Luminance colours.
If I am making 2 large areas side-by-side, separated by colour, then I am most probably going with a very slight difference in Luminance.
Then it also depends upon the screen. I like amber lines on a black background, but have never seen a satisfactory amber on my LCD display. I have seen CRTs do that better. And the most satisfying amber I have seen is that of a CFL at night, where even the colour of the wall behind it, affected the impression (not a screen, but a lighting fixture), so essentially a gradient.
Orchid has the perfect amount of red in it :)
I’m a fan of midnight and orchid personally.
I think I have a shirt in Midnight, so that's my answer.
hard to pick but Light feels neat
Plum or Russian
Orchid or Psychedelic.
I love royal
(Im only saying this because you're the moderator)
Half psychedelic, half indigo. Also, I'm darn certain some of these can't be rightly labeled. Either that or the 'average' perception and memory of color names is way off, because I swear I've seen violet as a much darker shade. Also, godddddddang, who put them in this order? It's not alphabetical, it's not in similarity, it's not even in brightness/darkness.
Indigo, then Iris, then Amethyst
I want more then one option. Can I pick the 3 colors from the bisexual flag?
Only if you adopt a bisexual from the local pound. Don't worry, they're really easy to care for. If you pat them on the head and give them affirmations twice a day, they are guaranteed to flourish! They're often resourceful enough to find their own food and will often bring home gifts that can be dropped at your feet, like piles of money.
Iris really pops
Wildberry, I like the softness of it and the reddish undertone. Then it's plum or midnight.
I count like four shades with slight variations.
Refused.
Bright is probably would be the closest for me, but it also depends on usage. I'm not using it as a wall colour.
As any eastern european would say:
I don't speak woman, purple is purple
