Color background for stickies to grab attention

Basically just a color behind sticky post so draw attention, might make new people read it more.
Bad mock-up with light green stickies (though it can be any color the ST wants, I used to have it mint green but people didn’t like it), I got tired of filling in white space in between letters.

Because I want it to stand out but not be too obnoxious. It’s a better option than others.

A good and non-intrusive way of getting attention, but I'd prefer something that hurts my eyes a bit less. Perhaps light-purple?

Other sites use that shade of mine green a lot in announcements, it's more recognizable

Well it's not a bad suggestion except it would render it impossible to use for me

It's not a crime if they don't. More experienced forumers can always point them out.

I promise your post hadn't shown up for me when I suggested that exact colour

Support!
Alternatively to the green, I could see a light yellow background working well, as it is a pretty traditional traditional “highlight” color, or maybe even a pale version of the orangey color from the scratch logo?

Or, yknow, customisable
scratch however almost always rejects customising suggestions and the reason is still being debated

If we could customize it then we would have custom website headers.

The possibilities are endless which is my reasoning of why the website is barely customisable

Is the current proposed color scheme good for accessibility purposes? Will the different color help the stickies stand out to others who have visual impairments, while still making the titles of the stickies easy to read?

EDIT: i originally misunderstood your question. I thought you were asking if they were colorblind friendly. oops
I put the image Logan provided through multiple colorblind filters, they still seem reasonably readable

Support as long as it isn't mint green (it hurts my eyes and I'm not joking I can barely look at that image)

Since the green isn't too popular, Maybe a light purple to match the theme of the website

Although I'm a massive fan of the mint green colour
