Skills/atributes in green

[nih]

When i look at my major skills a few of them are green, what does that mean. I ask because I bought a spell that requires 50 Illusion. My Illusion is up to 53 and when I cast the spell it says "skill level too low"

My illusion skill is one of the green ones

It means your skill is boosted due to some piece of equipemnt, like a Ring, or enchanted armor. You need your skill to *really* be 50 to cast it, not 50 with the help of something.
