I'd choose D. A and B are too dark. Also, A-C seem to hide some detail in the simulation of color blindness. On 4 June 2015 at 22:42, Eric Firing efir...@hawaii.edu wrote: I am forwarding a message from Nathaniel Smith which is the start of a long thread on matplotlib-devel

It is funny that you mention that you prefer the warmer colors over the cooler colors. There has been some back-n-forth about which is better. I personally have found myself adverse to using just cool or just warm colors, preferring a mix of cool and warm colors. Perhaps it is my background in

I vote for A and B. Only B if i get just one vote. C is too washed out and i like the warm colors more than the cold ones in D. It’s funny that this comes up while I’m handling colormaps in my own work at the moment. Neal Becker ndbeck...@gmail.com schrieb am Fr., 5. Juni 2015 um 12:58 Uhr: I
