I think youre right insofar as it doesnt quite match as well. And seeing the
new light gray against the old really makes the new gray almost look a little
pastel. So at first, yeah, I thought it looked awful as rock. But after seeing
it get used elsewhere, Ive been a bit more accepting.
In thinking about it, I guess I would compare it to a friend of mine who loves
Coke, but hates Pepsi so adamantly that hed rather drink *nothing* than have a
Pepsi. Other people I know say they cant even tell the drinks apart. Itjust
suprises me that such a slight difference would matter so significantly as to
totally swear off one or the other.
I guess what Im saying is that if Ive got a choice in grays for use in a
castle, Ill opt for the old gray. But if I need to use the new gray, meh,
thats ok too, just not my first choice. I wont refuse to use the new colors,
Ill just favor the old ones while I can.
