# Colors

I'm colorbind, so in Beyond Compare's settings, I long ago changed the pastel pinks and blues to something more high-contrast.  You might call it ketchup and mustard but I color-picked it from an abstract oil painting by Elaine de Kooning.  

Below are two screens in the default BC colors and then two screens with my high contrast scheme.

### How to set your colors

Method 1: Use mine:  (1) download the file below (2) `Tools->ImportSettings` (3) browse to where you saved my color file.

{% file src="/files/-LYd4aF\_MCWbWw471vNu" %}

Method 2: Roll your own. (1)search DuckDuckGo images for a nice image.  Try searching "logo" or "color pallete" or "tartan". Then bring in the RGB codes using your own color picker tool and this part of the menu: `Tools->Options->Colors`.

Don't have a color picker?  Find the RGB values using the built in pixel analyzer in Beyond Compare PictureCompare!
