My absolute favourite plugin is green balls!. It just changes the icon for succeeding jobs from blue to green balls. Why are they blue anyway?!
Came here to say this.
I once read somewhere that they were blue instead of green by default as that is how Japanese traffic lights are. Not sure how true this is though.
It's the most likely explanation since Jenkins was created by Kohsuke Kawaguchi, a japenese developer. The japanese influence can also be seen in the Jenkins logo which displays the butler, Mr. Jenkins, on top of the japanese flag.
Nice! Also check out the Modern Status plugin. Looks super cool.
I've read that blue is easier to differentiate from red for people that are color blind. :)
