Avlas,

well spotted. I have experimented with different colors and also find
the rocket's orange better in various cases compared to the former
complementary color of the main blue color. Mainly because it is darker
and therefore better to read on white background.

However, in the hover menu the new orange is not a good match with the
blue color. Therefore, I have changed the hover effect into a dark blue
(similar to octave.org's menu hover effect).

Thank you very much for your nice words and motivation!

Oliver
