Gradient Colors

Adding gradient colors for backgrounds for these templates, hope to eventually make a universal "box" template that can be used to create new Notice Templates, with the gradient-color-functionality built in. Colors can be chosen and changed later, more concerned with if people like the gradient function right now. We could probably discuss the progression here, so others can input their opinions.

To have it out in the open, my two cents are mainly that I like the light colors, and the gradient is nice but I'm split on whether I prefer the flat color or the gradient; gradient's definitely nice but I like the simplicity and uniformity of the flat colors. Interested to hear other peoples' input. --Parax0 (talk) 12:46, 25 January 2015 (CST)

Personally, I prefer the gradients. Sweeping up to white looks particularly good, but if you want something more eyecatching, maybe go from one shade of purple to another? IMO, going straight from purple to white looks a little weird. Bearborg (talk) 12:55, 25 January 2015 (CST)

I also prefer the gradients, and sweeping up to white. The colors are flexible, I just think they should match the icon for each template. I don't mind the purple pixels I pulled but I also see the appeal of the lighter, more subtle colors. Embyr 75 (talk) 13:10, 25 January 2015 (CST)

I kinda agree with purple to white being a little weird. I'd be curious to see what a purple-to-purple gradient might look like. --Parax0 (talk) 13:19, 25 January 2015 (CST)

Kinda meh on the purple to purple one. The darker purple doesn't really work IMO, especially since it starts to clash with the black text. --Parax0 (talk) 14:36, 25 January 2015 (CST)

Maybe something like this? Bearborg (talk) 14:44, 25 January 2015 (CST)

To do: Light purple to lighter purple.
