Shade of colors

Dark green might be too dark and green might be too light for certain templates. Can you help to show me how to create a color in between? The same issue applies to red (dark red and red).

Thanks,

CT comms.

• Executive and Legislative Nominations Committee, Connecticut Senate. I believe all of these articles should have their names changed to reflect that they are committees of the CGA as a whole. The correct name would be Executive and Legislative Nominations Committee, Connecticut General Assembly. If you have separate articles for the state house and the state senate, all of them should be renamed and if necessary merged where you have duplicates. The titles of the pages on the chamber pages such as Connecticut State Senate#Senate Committees and Connecticut House of Representatives#Standing Committees should then be corrected to avoid re-directs.

• This {{Connecticut House Committees}} also needs to be changed throughout to avoid redirects.
• And so does this {{Connecticut Senate Committees}}

What am I to do with HTML color codes?

I just went to the HTML Color Code website. For instance, if I wanted to use this code #006600 for green, how would I do it?

Thanks,

Thank you.

I see now. I am altering the {{approved1}} and {{defeated1}} templates.

Another question

I am working you for info. I am working in the Sandbox1 right now. I have 3 charts in there. Is there anyway that you know of to perfectly line up the "Petition" columns on all of the charts?

Thanks,

Good advice on editing the chart widths. Thanks,

CT legislative committees

GREAT job on the CT General Assembly committees. You may want to know that Aging has just been granted the status of full standing committee. This is new. But here is the web site with the information on members, etc. http://www.cga.ct.gov/age/ --User:Harrietmwelsch

Including footnotes in text about State Representatives

Well, I tried! I tried to use a footnote that would link users to the CT Secretary of State page for State Rep 2010 election results. It doesn't work. Any suggestions? Many thanks.

Problems with footnote

Thanks for the suggestion! But I can't make it work. Sorry! Harrietmwelsch 19:54, 23 January 2011 (CST)

Whoops!

Thanks for your help, but you linked it to the State Senate election results page, and not the State House election results page! This is fun -- I just can't get it right. Harrietmwelsch 20:41, 23 January 2011 (CST)

Question about writing dates

Hello Sharon,

I have a question about writing dates.
With this example:
March 30th, 2011

Is it possible to make the "th" small letters that appear raised?

Thanks,
