Accessibility notes

  • Ensure #2F4F4F or #4682B4 text on #8FBC8F meets WCAG AA contrast for body text; #8FBC8F itself is too light for text.
  • Avoid using #5F9EA0 for small text or critical information on light backgrounds, as contrast may be insufficient.
  • Always test contrast ratios for interactive elements to ensure they are easily discernible for all users, especially #6B8E23.
  • The darker shades provide excellent contrast; leverage them for important content and primary text.
