I just tried it and found I don't like that blue;-) However playing a bit with the colours I found #aa9933 gives a nice green which is far enough from the Slashdot green that I doubt it would generate any trademark problems.
-- The Tao of math: The numbers you can count are not the real numbers.
I tried your color, and I'm pretty sure our monitors happen to fall on different ends of the calibration spectrum. Which indicates a problem: how to pick a color that looks acceptable on most default-calibrated monitors?
(For simplicity's sake, we can reduce it to "looking acceptable on both Maxwell demon's monitor and on FakeBeldin's monitor)
