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!

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

Oh, i'll make a pros and cons list 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…”
If i have enough pros and cons, i'll add it to the original post
Pros
- Helps organizing scripts better
- 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 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…”

I support. This would organize blocks.
I'm pretty sure all will be in the new blocks section/category… 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…”

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.
