<p>Yes, it uses the same color scheme as before because I based it on the design of the tab bar, layer switcher and the rest of the site and that is the color scheme that is used on everything (except the layer switcher).</p>
<p>I do not see that it blends too much with the map. It is mainly black on white but the map is blue, light gray and light green. I can agree that the green bar is too close to the green forest, and that is the thing I was least happy with. The example image does not do it justace as I took the screenshot while zooming in on a forest while I was testing out different colours. I could not come up with a green that did not match the forest while keeping the color scheme of the site consistant on all monitors. The only option would have been to use another colour like red, blue or gray, however it would not look nice when looking at the entire page.</p>
<p>If anyone can come up with a colour that is a better candidate for the layer indicator I would be very happy.</p>
