    Brown Bricks - Wood or Chocolate? —Mark Bellis
   Here's a thread to discuss your opinions of old and new brown. I'd like to see what the consensus of opinion is. Q1. Is the old brown like wood? Q2. Is the new brown like chocolate? Q3. Are chocolate coloured trees feasible or not? Q4. Are there (...) (20 years ago, 9-May-04, to lugnet.color)

     (...) It depends on the wood. Wood comes in many different colors, so it's a bit hard to qualify one shade of brown as "woodlike" and another as "not woodlike". Heck, there's even a species of tree that has a distinct purple shade that fades over (...) (20 years ago, 9-May-04, to lugnet.color)

     (...) In fact most trees have bark that changes colour over time, so will appear different colours during the year.

     (...) You've got some strange dirt. Around here it's nearly black. (...) I've noticed that with light-bley and reddish-brown, it's easy to mistake them when they're not next to the old colors. Even if they're held a few feet apart, it's still pretty (...) (20 years ago, 11-May-04, to lugnet.color)

   (...) Yes (...) Yes, and it is also like wood... (...) Yes, I really don't think that a child will see a tree made out of the new brown, and go "Oh! Chocholate!" and then try to eat it (Augustis Gloop aside) I suppose you could say translucent red (...) (20 years ago, 12-May-04, to lugnet.color) !
