Colorful Custom Blocks!

[sorry for bad image quality, cubeupload is down]

I want to have an option to make custom blocks colorful
I have came up with an idea
Look! There's a small colorful circle there:

If you click that, a box will appear, where you can select the colors for that block!
With this circle, you can make your (custom) blocks any color!

Great idea! It would help with organization, and look cooler too!

Question, so the colors can only be from red to green?

I support - you could organize the blocks better.

This could help, but I think it may confuse newer scratchers of you make a block that is the same color as a normal block, they might then say, “Hey, where is that block, I don't see it in my editor…”

Haha ok! I kinda wish you could pick colors from a grid (like in 2.0) because when I try to pick a nice looking color I always somehow pick barf green or something like that :p

Oh, i'll make a pros and cons list
If i have enough pros and cons, i'll add it to the original post

Pros
  • Helps organizing scripts better
Cons
  • Could confuse new scratchers[1]

Well, they will figure it out soon enough :p. Also if it is a slider like how we pick colors in 3.0, their isin't really a chance that they will pick the exact same color as a operator/sending block

Wow, I really like this idea! I probably won't use it often, but I still think it would be cool. Support

I'm pretty sure all will be in the new blocks section/category…

Support – this would make blocks easier to recognize. But to prevent confusion, you should only be able to choose from a limited set of colors that are not used for built-in blocks.
