Hi Liam48D!

Thanks for your message!

I like the idea of different coloured table headers, too. This way you can see at a glance which game the table you're looking at is related to. Unfortunately, it wasn't my idea. ;-)

As I understand it, King Peke was the one who started using different colours. He created Character Templates for the different games, like this one: Template:Grandia Character.

And this here is the template for Grandia III Characters. As you can see - it's purple! It's used on the pages for Yuki and Alfina and the other Grandia III Player Characters.

King Peke also started to change different tables on various pages to match his Character Infoboxes' style, so the formerly used lilac-coloured tables began to disappear from the Wiki. You can still find them on some pages, though, like on the page for Emelious.

When I started adding shops to Grandia I and Grandia II pages, I picked the colours King Peke had chosen. If there should be an official statement somewhere around the wiki, I haven't found it yet. Unfortunately, King Peke hasn't been active for more than a year now. But I guess the colours were thought to match the games' colour themes: Blue with a touch of violet, as it is used for Grandia II tables, for example, reflects the colour of the game's menu. (It's been some time since I played Grandia III, though, so I can't tell whether purple is fitting or not. ;-))

If you want to change the colour for Grandia III pages and you find something fitting that is easy to read, that would be okay with me. (However, using white script on the dark purple background looks a bit harsh to me.) You could also ask Orc King, the admin, for his opinion, if you want to be sure.
