Background and Text Colors for MLB Teams 1901-2006

jdew · 06-12-2006, 02:33 PM

Attached file contains suggested hex codes for team background and text colors for the MLB teams from 1901-2006.

I tried to get as exact a match as I could off of the color samples I have....

If you notice something odd, it might be a typo (there were a lot of colors)....let me know so I can correct it.

Isn't this lovely?

You betcha!

Awesome, thanks! I am an OOTP newb, and the game is great (if not a little intimidating)- but its these mods that make the difference.

Thanks i'll be using this for sure.

Nice job. Many thanks.

Doughnuts? · 06-12-2006, 08:29 PM

Excellent work.

cephasjames · 06-12-2006, 11:42 PM

Thanks, jdew. If nothing else it gives us ready made colors to play around with.

Jeremy Weimer · 06-13-2006, 02:18 AM

Jdew, you da man. I've been hoping for something like this since the new version was released.

Thanks - we appreciate yer efforts and knowledge.

Great stuff. Any plans to publish codes for Triple-A and Double-A teams as well?

sovereignstar · 07-19-2006, 02:42 PM

I figured out background colors for every organziation linked with the MLB (minus the Mexican League and Venezuelan Summer League). For readability I'm using nothing but white (code=FFFFFF) for text. I'm not a big fan of mixing teams' primary and secondary as it can make them hard to see, ie the Diamondbacks.

Where do I put these files?

Tycobbler · 07-23-2006, 05:26 PM

Just make a folder and put them in there ie. teamcolors. In the Options/Ballpark on the team homepage is where you make your edits.

Do I make the folder anywhere?

Put it somewhere you will be able find for reference. You will have to make the edits manually

How does the game find it?

Unfortunately, you'll have to manually edit them within the game. I don't think the game can read them from a file, though this would be a nice feature

Not to belittle any of the work you guys have done, but here's a very small (about 62kb) program I found at download.com called Pixie:

http://www.download.com/Pixie/3000-2...ml?tag=lst-0-1

The above screen shot is about three times the actual size. When you run it it is always on top, so you can always see it. Simply hover your mouse over any point on your screen (on a color you want) and press ctrl+alt+c. This will copy the html color code of this color. Then you can simply use ctrl+v to paste it on the field you want in the team options page. It's very simple and fast to use and you can use any color on your screen, which is great for obscure and fictional logos.

Doughnuts? · 03-24-2007, 10:53 AM

Will try this program. Thanks.

Little mistake in the text file...

I think the text is supposed to be F0FFFF.
