My current favorite is the Nord theme/palette
Purple-Cyan, or maybe Yellow-Cyan.
The background of all my devices is a gradient version of the bisexual flag, so I guess that’d be my fav gradient!
Teal to orange
Dunno if it counts as one or three gradients, but I really like this green/brown/gold gradations.
That reminds me of swimming in rivers in the forest, the sand looks golden like that through the water
Cividis. Perceptually uniform gradient colormaps are fun for the whole family
Red/Silver
This is actually my diagonal monitor background
Let me guess – Java developer?
These look like Splatoon characters
…can you post your monitor setup?
That’s not the kind of diagonal I expected. I thought it would be something like this:
Something like this Firefox theme, but with some violet mixed in.
Purple
Light Blue to Blue.
Range (RGB): Around 0,230,255 to about 0,170,255Blue to yellow, duh
Slava Ukraini!
‘videogame ice effect’
I seriously love the weird ice shaders used in all those early 2000s games. Ice always looked amazing, just this super bright white with pearlescent whitish-blue highlights that shimmered at odd angles and stuff. It’s so cool. Like the bridge tunnel in IceFields from HaloPC in 2003.
Honestly: ice-themed anything looks cool to me
that fade from blue to purple
I got kind of sick of it for a while, because it was the latest clashy combo used by tech marketing, but it is legitimately pretty soothing
I wonder if orange+red is next
oh, interesting - yeah, I try not to let the marketing dominant my associations, but tbh it’s impossible to control that; blue does seem to be a corporate favorite.
I usually think about the time I spent at a kid looking at a cylindrical bulb that had a rainbow color spectrum, I loved the color and especially the blues.
I’m sure that’s a better way to be - to like what you like and disregard marketing trends
It might just be that I don’t watch TV adverts and I use uBlock origin so I don’t see ads online, so my main marketing comes from native ads (like stories on the radio) or billboards when driving places. I guess I mean the environment determines whether how those associations are built, for example I will forever associate British Petroleum with dinosaurs because my parents taped a dinosaur special on VHS and the big BP oil spill had happened so they were running lots of repetitive ads, so to get through my educational dinosaur show I had to at the very least regularly fast forward through these ads.
Green to blue to purple in electric pastels
