the hairs seem to be more of the issue than anything in the image. if those are hairs from random appearance spawning, it seems like more of a point toward refining how they roll. anything will look bad when layered with several eye bleeding colors of bangs or half of a hairstyle, skin color aside. we do have variables for them already, but it could be a good idea to make them all one color as well? it also just seems odd that someone would go through the trouble of picking traits, especially an appearance modifying trait, if they were going to roll a random appearance. if the goal Was to make an incredibly gruesome design, crimes against aesthetics done purposefully can already be done pretty easily, showcased here by the clash of hairs, clothing, and other existing traits like plant arms coming into play.

its fair to then say, why contribute to the problem? i'd agree that merging this pr doesn't help visual clarity when combined with other things like in the image. it can be confusing to someone who has just learned what hulk is, to see someone spawn in with the same green color. i don't have any rebuttal to this, its a totally fair point. im not too sure what a workaround could be for it, other than certain genes not relying on color alone to convey an effect. dare i say bring back the wrestlebelt/stims swol sprite effect... i dunno. i mainly just want to see more freedom in picking a skintone without having to rely on the current, clunky arrow system, or seeking out a medal to do so. contributor is a fun easter egg medal, but its existence has caused a lot of hurt feelings, i think largely in part to the customization benefits that come from it. this pr is, if anything, a good start. maybe we wont all be able to make sparkledog ocs in the future, but hopefully we will see an improved way to go about skintone picking for characters after the discussions and ideas from this pr thread
