Hard to see
I don't know about other folks' monitors, but this light shade of brown is super hard to see on the white for me. I would suggest hex 663300 as brown instead of F2DEB8:
This is better!
Than this!
Edit: The place I go for figuring out hex colors is here: http://www.psyclops.com/tools/rgb/ I just picked what looked like a nice dark brown from their default palette.

- I made it a little darker, but not so dark that it would get confused with darkorange.
- Version 1
- Version 2
- That is a bit better... I still think it looks light. I'll check on other monitors at home. Testing my version next to dark orange to compare now (edited to add version 2):

- I don't think they're similar at all. *shrug*. Very appropriate together for the fall season, though.
