One file?

Wouldn't it make sense rather to have one color file, making all color IDs global? I don't see why you would restrict one set of colors to only one item, and having it global would save a lot of typing and maintenance. Also, what about internationalisation? --Bjørn 21:22, 4 September 2008 (CEST)

One file is possible, yes. But with all the duplicate names in clothing, I thought it would be easier this way. For internationalization, I'll use the same system the DBs use, once it's figured out :). — Jaxad0127 01:25, 5 September 2008 (CEST)

Element Names

I suggest the root element be called "palette" instead of "colors", to avoid confusion with "color". -- Octalot 03:01, 20 October 2008 (CEST)

It'd need to be plural, because each file can have many. Maybe change color to palette. — Jaxad0127 06:27, 20 October 2008 (CEST)

Isn’t that what a palette is? A collection of colours? ✎ Kess^☽ 09:41, 20 October 2008 (CEST)

To remain consistent with the terminology using in the client, the inner element would need to be called palette. How about this: Dyes > Palette , while letting the palette have multiple channels? — Jaxad0127 16:49, 20 October 2008 (CEST)
