|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Overview
|
||
|
|
Successfully modernized the color scheme from retro 80s/neon arcade aesthetic to a professional, sophisticated tactical intelligence platform look.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Color Palette Changes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

- **Accent**: `#00D9FF` - Bright cyan (too neon)
|
||
|
|
- **Warning**: `#FFB800` - Bright yellow/orange (too saturated)
|
||
|
|
- **Danger**: `#FF3366` - Neon pink/red
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|

|
||
|

|

|
||
|
|
## Design Philosophy
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Refinement Approach
|
||
|
|
1. **Reduced Glow Intensity**: Lowered opacity and blur radius on all glows from 0.9 to 0.4-0.5
|
||
|
|
2. **Subtler Borders**: Changed from 3px bright borders to 1.5-2px refined borders
|
||
|
|
3. **Professional Gradients**: Updated background gradients to use slate tones instead of stark blues
|
||
|
|
4. **Sophisticated Shadows**: Reduced shadow intensity while maintaining depth
|
||
|
|
5. **Text Shadow Refinement**: Reduced from aggressive glows to subtle halos
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Key Changes

||
|

|
||

|
|
- **Low**: Bright green → Emerald sophisticated
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Interactive Elements

||
|
|

|
||
|
|
- **Input Fields**: More subtle focus states, refined borders
|
||
|
|
- **Cards**: Gentler hover effects, professional elevation
|
||

|
||
