 Topic: Opinion on my colours
Posted: 27 September 2003 at 2:10pm |
I just tried playing around with colours on a forum for my own website based upon a skin. Have a look and let me know what do you think of it.
The URL is http://soporte.corobori.com

Timing out trying to get to the url.
Gotta agree about black though. Open any magazine. How many pages have a black background? Why do you think this is? Dark backgrounds with minimal grahical content can attact attention, and express 1 idea. For any sort of narrative, light backgrounds make easier reading. and are more likely to hold the reader.
Your main site looks attractive, but the narrative is hard for these 50 year old eyes to read. I imagine that many of your target clientel have eyes at least that old.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

i dissagree bout the dark backgrounds i find them easier on the eye when reading lots, ie you dont get snow blind.
I would however as a comment say that the yellow is a little overpowering.
Good work though, looks cool, but i couldnt read lots of it coz of the yellow.

All boils down to opinion, but I can 99% safely say that most people would prefer a non black background.
