Greetings my fellow secretiers!
I am developing a new website and I have the design look I want, but I can't stand my choice of colors. It's as if I am color blind or at least
color-scheme blind.
my site is sozzledboot.com (still under construction...read 'not working yet!')
Check out the html code...not every color is able to be changed but there has to be something I can do to make the colors that can be changed match
and look more appealing!
PS: never mind the blue banner box at the top...I am having the company logo done by somebody else and who knows what color he has in mind for that
banner space!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thankx

Well, not sure what you are saying about a color not being able to be changed. I build websites for a living and believe me, every color can
be changed. Now there is a certain amount of colors in the "web safe palette", but with new graphics cards and such...you can even go way beyond
that.

sorry for being so vague.
I am referring specifically to non-image colors. ie font, background, bgcolor, etc.

Exactly what I AM talking about. They can all be changed. Everything has a color property. You can change all of those.

well in any event, the question is not so much what colors can be changed as it is what colors do I change to?
my choice of colors for the site are not agreeable to me and after many attempts to alter the color scheme, I still cant get the right colors or
combination of colors that make the site look any better than it is.
choosing colors has never been something that I am good at.
that is why I am hoping that someone here with an eye for colors and color matching can help me.

This is the very reason that I stick to template that someone else has made. I can make a web page do cool things, but I can't pick a color scheme to
save my life. If you haven't gone too far with this project I'd suggest finding a good template with a nice color layout. You can find these in the
range of $40 that look pretty darn good.
