LEGO-teal.

Well, it's certainly got my vote.


There are already teal variations in the color combinations LDraw can
create.
It's just a question of choosing one and make it standard.

Anyway, if you choose to chance the palette, the major problem I see is
with LDraw.
The only way I see we can change the standard VGA palette is to call
some program before LDraw that changes the system palette before it. I
remember some DOS interrupt that used to do that, although I suspect
this would not work in a windowed DOS box.
The other Windows programs should not have have this problem.

I personally would give higher priority to make the LDraw and POV-Ray
colors match (changing the POV-Ray palette).

PS: If someone wishes I can find out the teal palette LEGO uses in it's
animations - it's easy :-)
