Emily0415 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I’ve read around that color theorists and designers in fashion or computer graphics have coined phrases based around what colors shouldn’t go together. A couple of them are:”Red and Green Should Not Be Seen” and “Blue and Green Should Never Be Seen without Something in Between”. I am a newbie so I’m not sure if this applies in all cases any opinions on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynewex Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I hate bright yellow and bright red. Absolutely disgusting. There are a few sites out there that have color schemes ready to use. I'd also recommend searching Google for web design inspiration. You'll get some great schemes by looking at the works of more accomplished designers.

Daniel0 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 You could try something like this to create a color scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stooney Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I found this book to be really good. It's called the Zen of CSS. It doesn't teach you css, rather it explores good design with css. It goes over color's in most of the design samples.

jcombs_31 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 He's asking about color and you point to CSS resources, are you in the right thread? I really like colourlovers.com for color palette inspiration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
