The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

There are a few cases where we know the body color of a long gone organism, such as this one. But in most cases pigments are only left in very tiny amounts, that cannot be recovered or require better technologies to do so.

In cases of the species of the Gang, at the present we have no idea what color they were. The colors of the Gang only have basis in their designer's imagination.

As Jansenov said I think the pigments of only certain species are known and I think only certain pigments/colors.  Though I've not read up on this in a while so my knowledge may be outdated.
