Hi! I was wondering if it is possible to make it so the boxes were of colors other than blue (for men), pink (for women) and a third color. Like, if I wanted for some men to be green and for others to be red, or something like that, would that be possible? I'm pretty sure it's still impossible, but I just wanted to check. Thanks!

On the bottom of your family tree page, you should see "Show Options". Select that. It will pop up, and in the center you will see "Background" through "Deceased" with colored boxes beside them. Select any color box, and the color menu will pop up for you to select any color you wish!

Hi, thanks for your answer! Although that isn't what I meant... I know I can select any color for men and for women and whatever, but what if I want to make men of different colors? Say one men red, another one green, and another one blue. That's what I was wondering.

There are browser extensions that let you override the CSS for a website (this just overrides it for you). You could set the color of individual people in this manner. You light have to learn a little bit about CSS.

Hi, thanks for your answer! I'll take a look at it, see if I can understand how CSS works since I've never tried it. Thanks for your help!
