Color of GMs forum names

I'd like GMs names to be of a slightly brighter blue.
The current one is painful to read, while I believe that GMs names should be the most easy ones to be noted and read.

Ok, let's confess it: I used to recognise GMs names basing on their lenght.
Now that
Arashiko (8 characters) is bluenamed, I'm crashing on discerning it from
DaHobbit (8 characters).
My eyes beseech for a brighter color

I highlight them with my mouse to read them.
But not everyone is on a computer.
And clicking on a user name usually takes you to their profile

Here two possible brighter blues proposals for GMs names in forum:
- this color's code is 0000EE
- this color's code is 0000FF
- this color's code is 40bfFF
- this color's code is 0040FF
IMO, the
second blue is the best fitting one.
How is it readable on your devices?

Neither option is great on my device. Tbh I prefer the shade of blue you use in your signature where you've increased the font size.

I added it as 3rd option, but it is too similar to non-GM forum users names.
What about the current 4th?

Ah ok fair enough. Yes, option 4 is much better and easier to read than 1 and 2.
