Why no orange dyes?

We have every other primary or secondary color set. Red, Yellow, Green Blue, Purple, Brown, and Grey (White to Black). Why is orange left out? I mean I've already seen people wearing full bright pink, turquoise, and neon purple suits of armor.

    The closest i got is atmori bronze. It makes a metallic orange
    There is only one god and his name is Death. And there is only one thing we say to Death: “Not today...”

There is something old and true in fantasy that speaks to something deep within us, to the child who dreamt that one day he would hunt the forests of the night, and feast beneath the hollow hills, and find a love to last forever somewhere south of Oz and north of Shangri-La."

    So rather than a whole palette of shades, there's one orange in "Red" and a bronze in "Brown"?

    This is why you should have been on PTS. We took a poll over there and decided we wanted pink instead of orange.

    I really don't think pink is mutually exclusive with orange. It may be an eyesore to have them both on the same costume, but it's not as if all colors are harmoniuos with each other in the current palette...

    I had a good looking sort of light orange jerkin yesterday. Today when I logged on after the patch it was suddenly bright blue. My Altmer character says it clashes with her eyes, and that she "won't be caught dead in a blue shirt" (her exact words, I swear), but I can't recreate the orignal colour scheme at the dye station.

    I made it black and said it is the new orange. I don't think she believed me, though.

    Maybe we should ask for a true RED in the REDS selection before asking for fancy stuff like orange.

    I still think we need more shades of pink.

    I saw someone with heavy armor on today and it was looking mighty orange. IDK what it was but I have a color that looks kinda coppery and ID think it was the same one.
    Made me squint. :)

    It sounds like most of you need to get more achievements.

    There are plenty of colors, including orange, and they're all quite accessible. And for the person asking about "real red," have you tried the Imperial Ruby Red?

    I have to agree as the proper Redoran House Colors appear to be a deep red with orange trimming, which makes it hard to create the armor, since metallic armors can't pull of the look a chitin meaning your left with house colors.

    Sure there are a couple orangish ones but their mostly dull copperish.

    There is orange dye now it's very orange like pumpkin.
    History, like a human being, is thirsty when it wakes from its slumber…History wants to drink up an enormous amount of blood. And even if history has tired of drinking blood, that’s only in regards to the amount. But what about quality? The larger the sacrifice is, the more delighted the cruel gods will be.

    Shadows of hist achievment dye is what you're looking for
    It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
    Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt,
    It lies behind stars and under hills,
    And empty holes it fills,
    It comes first and follows after,
    Ends life, kills laughter.

    the apricot one that comes from the murkmire dungeon achievement is very orange. I've seen a guild leader with it on her shirt.
