Change the default colours for a new corporate style

[Info 3bits]

Define new default colours for theme

[Jeremy Hopkins]

I was going to suggest doing this, do you have any ideas on what would look nice as a default install?

[Info 3bits]

That's a good question.

Blue, no doubts. Now the problem is to decide which one.

BCU is too dark and looks sad and serious. I know it is a university, and they are serious, but we need something more attractive

Normally we use the Material Design palette from Google for our designs:

We do it because they include a full palette for each primary and secondary colours.

Any blue or green from this set of colours would be good.

[Jeremy Hopkins]

Yes those are very versatile colors. I think Teal may look best rather than blue?

[Info 3bits]

I agree. Teal is really good

[Jeremy Hopkins]

I just wondered if you had started on this?

Just to let yo know I am working on changing the default colors / install settings at the moment, should commit later today.

Jeremy, the colours are already changed in my test site. Just waiting your comments.

[Jeremy Hopkins]

I liked your site and am copying the colors out of your site and adding a few other changes to the default install to make it more distinct from the old BCU theme. Ill try and get this done today and test the re-install a few times.

I just pushed some changes on 792ea90 but have more changes to make.
