# The server embed color

Settings, "Server Settings & Logging", **Main Embed Color**.

This is the accent stripe down the left side of every Ticket King embed in your server. It applies to panels, ticket welcome embeds, log embeds, and application embeds.

## Default

`#d4af37` (gold).

## Changing it

1. Click the colored swatch next to the field.
2. The color picker opens. Type a hex color code, or click on the color wheel.
3. The setting saves automatically.

## How embeds use it

Most embeds use this color automatically:

* Panel embeds (when the panel's embed Color field is left blank). Set a color on a panel embed to override it there.
* The welcome embed inside new ticket channels.
* Open and close log embeds.
* Application embeds.

Error embeds use a fixed red instead, so the color you set here does not change them.

## Picking a good color

Match your server's existing color scheme. Most servers pick the color of their main branded role or their server icon's main color.

Avoid:

* **Pure black or pure white.** These are hard to see on Discord's themes.
* **Colors close to Discord's own interface.** Discord blurple (`#5865F2`) can blend in.
