Out of the box you can control Discourse’s base color scheme as well as the colors available for categories (the `category colors` setting). But if you want to use our avatar generation system you either have to live with the somewhat random color assignments, fork the [letter-avatar microservice](https://github.com/discourse/letter-avatars), or create your own randomly-assigned defaults.

It would be nice if there were a site setting that accepts a list of colors (similar to the `category colors` setting) that are randomly paired with letters from the avatar generator.

Working through this … our letter avatar service already allows for color to be specified:

I am warm to a site setting that lets you restrict this, seems like the simplest thing to do here vs defining custom color palettes.

`restrict_letter_avatar_colors` : `aa00aa,bbccdd,332244`

If set only pick letter avatars from the restricted list.

@maja can you add this to your list?

Clearly the default is just to work as we do today, but if people define colors in the settings then we would only use a subset.

مرحباً بالجميع

هل من الممكن تغيير مجموعة الألوان التي تسحب منها صور الرموز الافتراضية للأحرف؟ لا يمكنني العثور على هذا الإعداد أو أي معلومات إضافية حول هذا الموضوع.

بنفس الطريقة مع الفئات، أود أن “أُعَلِّم” صور الرموز الافتراضية بألوان العلامة التجارية.

شكراً!

نعم، الإعداد موجود في `admin > settings`، ويسمى `restrict_letter_avatar_colors`
