I'm hosting Hoarder to use as an alternative to Google Keep. One thing I like in Keep is the ability to set a background color to my notes. It helps to break things up a bit in a specific list of notes visually, while being completely optional. This would be great in Hoarder.

Also, it would be awesome to give every note a title. I noticed this feature is available on pasted images (or it just renames the image file, but similar outcome). For example, I have a list of port numbers on my network switch as a reference for what number goes to what device. I have to put:

Garage Networking Hub
----------------------------

at the top of the body of my note to get a large letter title to quickly find it. It would be nice if we had a separate field to title an entire note, instead of including it in the body of the note every time. To be honest, this again is another feature inspired by Google Keep.

Hoarder is an awesome app and I'm excited to see where it goes. Thanks for your work on it!

@Majoraslayer sorry for the late response. Regarding the title, if you expand the bookmark, you'll find you can add a title in a separate field.

I had to play with it for a sec to find it, but I see it now when you click the "expand" arrows on the note. I'm glad to see the feature does exist, but it might be easier to find if it can be integrated as an option when you click the three dots --> Edit button as well.

custom color background and custom image background ( maybe some default nice eye-protected image) are the only features I want.

and title editing showed up by clicking the "expand" instead of "edit" which is quite weird UI design.
