color picker needs upgrade

I find it difficult to scroll through the scoopscode colour picker, scrolling down a long list:....where is my color...where is my colour...??
It would probably be easier to have a colour picker like that...see attached image, all at one glance, hidden in a hidden DIV, appearing on demand.

Definitely a good idea!

Can you please submit it as a Feature request with a link to this post?

Thanks!

Hi,
I put a lot of effort into launching a Feature Request,
I registered a name, put in the cookie settings for sourceforge.net, went to the page, ...
I was logged out
I logged in again...from the submit site,
error: ERROR - No group_id was chosen.
logged in again,
went to the link
I was logged out again....

at the end I made various attempts to log in and to post the request, but after trying hard it all failed.

Sourceforge is such an user unfriendly place. It doesnt work properly and if you search for something you can be sure you cant find it.

I tried to enter following text at sourceforge:

For XOOPS 2.x and future versions:

It is difficult/inconvenient to scroll through the scoopscode colour picker, scrolling down a long list:
....where is my color...where is my colour...??
It would probably be easier to have a colour picker like that one described in my post at XOOPS.ORG
Here you can find the post I made:

Thats very kind.

I also have no idea how to find your project page and where to post that.

I searched for XOOPS Dynamic Web CMSand it gives me loads of search results and as soon as I open one I am logged out.

sourceforge is no fun, maze-like, you never find what you want and incredibly slow to navigate from my place here in Singapore. Every page needs a minute to open form here.

I agree, that SourceForge needs some "usability" improvements. They are making some changes right now, but I am not yet sure if this will be for better, or if will confuse people even further.

FYI - all important SourceForge links are under "Development" Menu on the left side on this Website.

I noticed that already.
Its nice to have it there, but sadly it does not further my efforts to post comments and recommendations on that site because as soon as I use one of those links I am logged out there, and after I have logged in I have to start searching.....where was that???...
and then I am logged out again.
