Help Avoid A Color Disaster!

  #1  
Jun 14th, 2004
With my good share of web surfing i have seen some horrible color schemes and i thought i should share 2 color secrets i know of. one i found and one i was recommeneded to

The first which i use alot is behr.com's color smart system. you may thing wait isnt that for paint but hey coloring your website is kinda like painting right? you can find the color smart system here(requires flash): http://www.behr.com/behrx/workbook/index.jsp
click on browse colors->interior
from there choose a color you like or which nicely compliments your sites theme. from there you will choose if it is primary of secondary. primary meaning in the websense your background. after that behr.com's paint specialists have created multiple combinations to suit your needs. after choosing it see how each color really compliments each other choose a room and then mix and match till looks right to you. if the combination doesnt work out go back and try again

my second secret to coloring is pixy.com's color scheme system. you can find it here: http://www.pixy.cz/apps/barvy/index-en.html
now this system is much more simple and does not require flash. it does require a little more configuration but alot more settings another downgrade about this is that the color you choose is considered primary and the color scheme system chooses the complimentary colors based on it. a positive though is there are many more colors to choose from

I hope this has and will help many of you creating the "perfect" color scheme for your "perfect" site. Enjoy:cheesy:
