MattIndieWeb Carnival August 2025 : Colo(u)rs
The IndieWeb Carnival for August 2025 is out, and the theme is colours. It is hosted by Marisabel.
Marisabel has asked five questions, so let’s give them a go
What shade lives in your bones?
This one. It is hex code #FFFFCC. When I was younger, I found that this colour reduced reading strain, and it kind of became my go-to colour for highlights and background colour when I wanted less dyslexic interference.
A close second is #666 when I want a darkish colour and can’t be bothered to think any deeper about it. The number of the beast is a good go-to grey.
When has colour saved you?
Only in the broadest sense has colour saved me per se. Like the green man says, walk – that sort of thing.
Do you dream in technicolour or monochrome?
My dreams are always full-colour cinematic epics. Check out my dream logs for some ideas about the content of my dreams.
What colours define your homeland? Your life?
Red, White, and Blue are the colours of the Union Flag, but, unlike America, we don’t tend to worship our flag. For a long time, our buses were always red, our police always blue, and… Nuh, I can’t come up with something for white. Unless you count our hospitals, which seem to love white paint; UK hospitals are, of course, free at the point of use. The NHS saved my life with medication I could not have afforded even if I had a house to mortgage.
Any meaning colour might have in your life!
There are some colours which are important to my life.
- Black – I was a bit of a metal head crossed with a goth as a youth. Black is, therefore, part of my tribal (subculture) colours.
- White – just because it contrasts easily with black.
- Purple – see also goth.
- Silver – as above, but more so.
- Blue – because I am also a tech nerd.
- Green – trees and plants are part of my soul.
- Pale Yellow – I find it easier to read
- Brown – this is my name and the colour of the drink of the gods – tea!
Yes, that is a horrendous colour palette. I dare you to try and make a nice-looking CSS style with it.
Over to you
What does colour mean to you?

Peter BinkleyWith help from @jake, @isaacfreeman and @ellane, I've ended up with this snippet, which makes me happy. It allows different colors for dark and light color schemes, and it uses a monospace font for source view.
.theme-light .markdown-source-view.mod-cm6 {
background-color: #ffffcc;
}
.theme-dark .markdown-source-view.mod-cm6 {
background-color: #000044;
}
.markdown-source-view:not(.is-live-preview) .cm-scroller {
font-family: monospace !important;
}
A really useful css snippet for #Obsidian for those of us who are constantly switching between edit and read mode: change the background colour when you're in edit mode
.markdown-source-view.mod-cm6 {
background-color: #ffffcc;
}
Put it in a file named edit-view.css in .obsidian/snippets, then go to Appearance in your vault settings, scroll to the bottom, and activate it
