MissMary Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I don't like any of them! LOL... I like the left color on D and the right color on F together.IMO, Pink and white is overdone. (And usually is a retro 50's look)B is too much... ummm... no delicate way to say it - too much poo color together. E doesn't go together in my eyes. F... it's not bad, but the orange looks better IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonlithaven Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 If I had to pick one from there, it would be D. I like the black and pumpkin orange.(I love the fall and halloween time, lol) I don't think the tan color goes with it though. Maybe as a very little accent color.

It's a gorgeous rich color, but it needs that softer beige IMO in F. The other is too dark, which I think in website and labels would be too close as a competing color rather than contrast.

Late Night Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Of the 6 choices, I like A the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockmonkey Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I don't feel like I could really say what's my favorite until I knew how the colors were going to be used in order to create the "elegant" look you want.I hate E, don't care for C, and I'm not that big on D either. Based strictly upon swatches of color shown here, I would probably choose B. But, depending on your use of color, maybe E could turn out to be my favorite. Another thing to remember is that colors can vary from monitor to monitor, so we could be seeing different things alltogether. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
