ColorSetGui - Unused vanilla colorset creation GUI?

[DontCare4Free]

I was looking around in the GUI editor a while ago, when I found a GUI called "ColorSetGui". I thought it was a part of RTB or something, so I decided to try it in my vanilla BL install. Lo and behold, it was still there.

That's because that's what it is.

This is what opens if you click the Color Set button on the avatar window...

Ah, sorry, haven't even noticed that button before.

Some people use this to create a more unique avatar by editing the colors they can use.

Can other people see the changed colors?

That brings up the question; what's stopping BL from having a color picker rather than a predefined colorset?

Sorry if this has been asked before.

Pretty sure it's because the colors in colorsets use datablocks or something like that.

Yup. Tons of colors = tons of datablocks.

you could probably have some kind of hacky way to have a colour picker but it would be terrible and wouldn't even be worth making because it'd be so terrible
