Is there something I’m missing…? there’s a 3x5 grid (15 colors) where black has been changed, + a background of transparency (black), and that makes… 16, not 17. Colors: White (1), Red (2), Pink (3), Orange (4), Yellow (5), Turquoise (6), Green (7), Blue (8), Light Blue (9), Purple (10), Purple-Gray (11), Dark Purple (12), Tan (13), Brown (14), Dark Green which replaces Black (15), and Transparent which is black when nothing is behind it (16). I just named every color on the screen, and there are only 16, one being Transparent. [Also, I kinda… already did this over a year ago…](https://forum.makecode.com/t/16-colors-instead-of-15-and-clear/10716) No offense, of course, as it is still cool, but 15 customizable colors + transparency (which is black when nothing is behind it) is still technically indended and it still isn’t 17 colors… --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.makecode.com/t/you-can-get-17-colors-i-makecode/16929)._
