Question Forum Colours
im trying to make a new template/skin for my forum but i cant think of the colours to use.

I want it nice to look at and not too overpowering with colours and not too complex, and i dont want it to dark.

so any ideas on a base colour i can work from and use gradients of that colour?

HEX codes will be fine aswell



Jake

Take a look at kuler - it's an amazing site for colour schemes.

There are so many different color combinations that look great...Just choose one that you like. Make sure it matches of course, in which case, use a tool like the one bdude linked to.
