#2583 [Accessibility] Status colors not helpful for colorblinds

Closed: Fixed Feb 5, 2021 by tkopecek. Opened Dec 6, 2020 by mikelo2.

Build status have closed (green #00CC00) or open (orange #FF6600) options that can be confusing for colorblind, as text is very close and with a small font size.

Would it be possible to add a visual like an icon/emoji to each status to make it easier to track?

For example here:

Metadata Update from @tkopecek:

Are the icons used in tasks page (https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/tasks) ok? Maybe we can reuse them (or smaller variant) in those other pages.

That would be helpful yes.

I also did some tests changing colors with what I would say 'stronger' colors and it helps. Just the taskclosed/green change is huge to diff from taskopen/orange:

taskclosed green 00CC00 -> 008000
taskopen orange FF6600 -> FF8C00
taskfailed red CC0000 -> FF0000
