Multiple color schemes

Expand Post »
Hey guys. As many of you know, plans are in the works to reimplement the section-specific color schemes. However, I'm now wondering if that is a not so good idea. The reason is because right now we are the only purple IT site, and it would do a lot of good to our branding if we remained that way, sitewide.

On the other hand, color schemes would be a visual aid to navigation, and also help reinforce that we cover so much material - like 6 subsites to an umbrella company DaniWeb.

What do you think? Let's vote on it!

Re: Multiple color schemes

Keep it uniform, might make people move between sections more.

I'm no fan of purple myself but it's better than pink

Re: Multiple color schemes

Hello,

I do not see a particular gain to have color specific areas. I do however feel that colored text needs to remain functional in the new stiyle.

Re: Multiple color schemes

I personally prefer different colours for different section like what happened with second redesign of the site, just gives each section (which Dani wants to advertise as seperate sites) a unique feel.

Re: Multiple color schemes

I feel it must be uniform. Different colors doesn't serve much of a purpose.
