This is a really funny question, ok this goes to everyone, well mainly everyone.

I create sites like coding and graphics etc...but what i have trouble with is choosing colors it gets to the stage where i just sit there for 1 hour just choosing the right colors, i've tryed places like color-mixers etc, never seems fun..hehe..

any suggestions?

[syntex]

Just sit down...
Think of ur fave colour...
And get something that matches with it

Like for me P2L V2 was a dream as i love lite blue and green went with it perfectly

[hasouni]

i guess i could agree with you on that one, but my fav color is red what you think is going to mix with that, if i do it, it would rather look like a hacky kinda site or something

[syntex]

BLACK+ RED is a awesome match

I use a spinning color wheel I made in art class, it gives me the complimentary colors

I normally choose colors targetting the target of users that is being aimed.

find a tutorial on P2L that shows how people react to colors and what feelings different colors can project, i'm talking about color theory
http://www.pixel2life.com/tutorials/Adobe_...=color%20theory

ofcourse sometimes i just start typing in random hex numbers when i need to pick a color, lol
