Soldier Jane Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 1. Red is often associated with anger and aggressive behaviour. 2. Blue is often associated with clarity and purity. 3. Green is often associated with nature and growth. The first colours that came to me anyway.

Daniel0 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Red for delete because it signifies danger. I don't naturally associate adding and editing with any color.

thewooleymammoth Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 red yellow green here as well. yellow seems more nuetral than blue too me. plus your rgb doesnt make a great color combo imo. red yellow green seems like a more viable color scheme Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/204862-your-colour-associations/#findComment-1073264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldier Jane Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 If it really boils down to personal preference I'd suggest simply trying them out or looking at http://kuler.adobe.com/ for some inspiration.
