Thread: Black Clothing
I made a reverse outfit for a guy. He wanted all black i said everybody has black so we made him a white jacket, white pants, black shirt, black boots and black gloves, he looked pretty sweet and he was quite happy indeed. Don't be afraid to make little suggestions on changes.

I currently have field wear 3, close to 4 and still haven't got very many real colors, just shades of them.
After novice tailor you don't get any new colors unless you are going up the "Tailoring" line. The other three trees only grant schematics, all the skill modifiers are in the Tailoring line.
And so the quest for the True Black Dye Tub begins!

Lol, exactly what I was thinking.
For what it's worth, someone on a rant forum that I joked about the UO refernece to says that with a calibrated monitor and correct gamma, they are black. It's just that the rest of us are tired of running around in the dark and have turned the gamma up (I know I have) making true black look grey.
BTW for those mystified by the reference, UO allowed you to have dye tubs to change the color of items. Early in the game there were bugged black tubs that were banned by the devs because they did some terrible things or somesuch. Since there were many things in dark grey similar to what we're talkig about here, this became known as "true black." (Youcan get black dye tubs now as a veteranreward.)These were sold for huge amounts and traded in secret. An amusing cartoon from an amusing series follows.

When my customers are female, they want the entire spectrum. I black outift is nice, but what else can I do?
When I sell from my shop, I usually make a white, a black, and a green of the item I'm selling and they all sell out.
People are weird
