Wow, you're right. That was a bad choice.
Take a look at the color chart I posted in
<http://news.lugnet.com/cad/dat/ideas/?n=121>, and see if there's anything
you like there. Especially check colors 320 through 335 - these are all
dithers with red. Color 320 (red+black) looks likely, although it's
*really* dark on my monitor. Color 326 (red+brown) might be good. I
thought 328 (red+dark gray) would be a possibility, but it's too washed out.
Also, be aware that colors will differ between programs -- L3Lab's default
for color 12 is Orange (and I think L3P is the same).
Once we've got a new, better value picked out, we can update the information
in the LDraw FAQ.
