Green - pilot is in your corporation.

Orange - pilot has low security standing

By default all the colors are set up in this fashion. You may be interested in reading an overview tutorial on how to customize your overview and help you learn what all the colors and functions mean. Here is one on the EVElopedia and here is a another one from EVE University.

Am I the only person who has wartargets set to green?

The human eye is most sensitive to green when against a black backdrop, and so it just makes more sense :pirate:

For a while i had them set to flashy white :P

I also did once have alliance set to turquoise with the logic that it was just a darker version of the green corp mate color and so i could separate alliance blue from good standings blue...but it got a lil awkward

Sounds like you really hate your corp... SCNR :)

Didn't touch colors so far. Red might be not the very best option contrast wise vs. black, but it's still quite noticeable, especially with other colored clouds around (e.g. blue or green clouds). This might actually become a lot more interesting once they introduce the new nebulae, cause from what I've seen they might be a lot more colorful.

Looking for more thoughts? Follow me on Twitter.

My corp members are red, because they're bad, bad people. I'm sure they'd prefer it that way. Blink
