	You will notice that the background is the color of GOLD and the text is the color of IODINE

	Wikipedia says chlorine is "pale yellow-green". And although nobody's every got much astatine, it's probably black or purplish (in keeping with the trend of the other halogens). Carbon is often black too.

	I double checked chlorine, you are right, and I will fix that, but do not trust wikipedia without looking up their sources. As for astatine if the color is unknown I will not put it on here. Carbon; in it's raw form as C-one atoms, it is grey.

	The quiz is short enough that you should probably increase the font size on the answers to 14 points. That can be done on the style page.

	Also your source page says "Fluorine is a pale yellow gas".

	Cesium is a beautiful gold color (and also a liquid just above room temperature.)

	Firestorm:	Jan 26th, 2010 at 18:34 GMT	1 point
	@rockgolf: I said pottedstu was right about chlorine not being clear, and thanks for the 14 point tip @cryophile: Cesium is only tinted gold, I was not going to add it, but since it has been suggested I will

	rockgolf:	Jan 26th, 2010 at 19:46 GMT	2 points
	@firestorm: I was referring to fluorine, not chlorine.

	dylz:	Jan 26th, 2010 at 20:15 GMT	3 points
	by the way, the word you're looking for is colorless, not clear. completely different.

	Firestorm:	Jan 26th, 2010 at 22:35 GMT	1 point
	@rockgolf: OH! I just glanced at it thought you said chlorine. @dylz: you are right

	Firestorm:	Jan 26th, 2010 at 23:06 GMT	2 points
	@rockgolf: by the way how do you do bold text?

	zzyzx501:	Jan 26th, 2010 at 23:12 GMT	3 points
	Your source doesn't actually say that manganese is colored, does it? I think it's just a little oxidized in the picture they have.

	Pyrophorus:	Jan 27th, 2010 at 01:41 GMT	2 points
	Agreed, unoxidized manganese is silvery. It rusts sort of like iron does, and so samples of it often have a colored tarnish. Selenium has a red allotrope and should certainly be added (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selenium#Production_and_allotropic_forms )

	Firestorm:	Jan 27th, 2010 at 22:11 GMT	1 point
	@zzyzx501 & Pyrophorus: I will fix those things

	Firestorm:	Jan 28th, 2010 at 18:52 GMT	1 point
	@Pyrophorus: but make sure you checked wikipedias sources

	Pyrophorus:	Feb 6th, 2010 at 17:49 GMT	2 points
	There are a lot of sources for the existence of red selenium; wikipedia just had a picture too. See for instance http://www.springerlink.com/content/t4888r77u658325g/ and http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/3954951/description.html

	awesomeguy2204:	Apr 25th, 2010 at 00:18 GMT	0 points
	Include Carbon, because its allotrope graphite is black, although I know Diamond is Clear. Perhaps you could add Astatine as a bonus because following the trend of the other Halogens its though to be a Black Solid.
