I'm using a slightly modified version of garland for a project, using the color module to shift all colors from blue tones to green tones. Now the problem that I have is that the stars indicating required fields are light blue instead of red, which makes their meaning less clear to the average user. There is a similar issues for message boxes, where warnings are blue but regular messages are red.
The color module handbook at http://drupal.org/node/108459 gives a good explanation of the process, and indicates how to make sure that some colors are fixed (they stay the same no matter what the color scheme is). I added the "Color Module: Don't touch" marker in a comment as indicated, moved the "
span.form-required" (used for the stars indicating required fields) after the marker and made sure that the color-shifted copy of style.css was regenerated, but for some reason the marker is ignored.
So my question is: has anyone gotten this marker thing working, either with garland or with another theme? and if so, do you have an idea of what I could be doing wrong?
Thank you,
Florian
