(intending to use an offensive & highly visible bright green, myself)

Where'd you get the stickers? It's not easy being green... <GD&R>

Model paint.

It's not easy being Brown, either.  ;)

Well, I gotta ask.. why AREN'T you using brown paint then? (there is no
color that's an obvious choice to associate with my name, but for people
that have one???)

Because brown doesn't show up very well against dark grey.  Bright, easily
distinguished colors make sorting out what track belongs to who much faster.

Ya, ya, refute me with practical details. Just use Fluorescent Brown(tm) (1).

1 - I don't think there is such a color but there "could be"... mix
flourescent green and orange and see what you get!
