Purple is too dark to be used efficiently, IMO.

I've tried out many shades of colours. I staryed off with the cubesmith standard set. I hated how close together the green and blue were so I ordered fluo green from cubesmith. Then I realized that havig only one bright colour was too distracting and I had trouble recognizing the other colours in a solve. I decided to make a big cubesmith order and got many differet shades of colours. There was bright blue, light green, bright orange, fluo colours, black, and lots more. I put different sets on different cubes (all black btw) and decidedto use a cubesmith fluorescent set. The red and orange didn't look too good for me so I used bright orange. I also swapped white with light gray. This is by far the best colour scheme I could find
btw I can post pictures of my cube or something but I'm on my iPod at the moment

Wrong.

I like dark colors on sides and white and fluro yellow on top. Makes recognition on f2l and LL so much easier. (assuming you do white cross and yellow cross only)

Here was my idea (made in paint, didnt know what everyone else was using in this thread

The idea is to make cross + LL easier, while maintaining cubing ability, by making the F2L colors darker.

For Solvers that use G/B for cross/LL:

For Solvers that use Y/W(Bl) for cross/LL:

Optional: Change black w/ white. Probably recommended....

I want this. But maybe not with fluorescent.
