Can we get different colros for multi-attribute potions

Sometimes in the thick of battle I need to switch my potion to meet my needs at the time. I have several kinds: health + magick, health + stamina, magic + stamina and all three + the individual ones.

The problem I have is there is no visual indication between them. Every potion that has a restore health component is red and uses the "restore health" suffix.

I'd like to see unique coloring/shape/size/whatever for the different potions. either mix the primiary colors together for a new color (i.e. health and magic red+blue = purple potion) or stripe them in.

I know that you can have a lot of effects on potions and you can't make all of the unique, but I'm mostly interested in the "Restore" potions

    Not only unique colors but allowing the player to rename any created concoction.
    Words contained in posts, at which point I stop reading and will not respond...
    Toon / Mana / WoW or any acronym following "In ___" /
    Pets (when referring to summoned Daedra) / Any verbiage to express slang (ie, ending in uz,az,..) / Soul Stone
    ... to be continued.

    Now, get off my lawn.

    Totally agree.
    Also stamina and health potions look almost the same.

    Really? I mean, one is very obviously green and the other very obviously red. I'm not meaning to be sarcastic, I'm serious: are you partially color blind on greens or reds by any chance? I hear those are two of the most common colors for color blindness, and that most people don't even know it.

    More likely, though, it might have something to do with the way your screen displays the colors. Maybe try changing some color settings?

    Currently we have red for health, blue for mana and green for stamina (I am guessing one of the posters is colour blind or monitor issues)

    When you make a potion that gives mixed stats it should be a colour that matches the stats it increases

    For Example
    Purple for Health\Mana potions
    Brown for Health\Stamina potions
    Turquoise for Mana\Stamina potions

    And White for potions that give Health\Mana & Stamina

    Each combo should have a different name too, currently selling stacks of the 'good stuff' (V5 potion that gives Health\Mana & Stamina) appears to look the same as selling a health potion.

    Yes I am partially colourblind. Thing is that after lvl 30 it becomes dark green. How about yellow for hp/stam?
