Maybe a scheme like this (only major colors here; I'm not trying to design the entire doc style <g>):
Major headings: 0x006699 (dark blue-teal) Backdrop: 0xEDFFFF (very pale blue-teal) Box 1: 0xC1EAFC (desaturated light blue) Box 2: 0xD5EEF4 (very desaturated light blue) Contrast Color: 0xFF7856 (hot orange) Body Text: 0x000000 (black)
I think most people will find this a very pleasing combination that's not wildly different from the existing one. Just a bit perkier and easier on the eyes. I've got a sample page done in PhotoShop kicked up in front of me right now, and frankly, after coming up with it, I believe I'll work a more involved version of it into the product I support, as I find that I'm rather pleased with it myself.
Can we take a peek at the sample page?
Sure. Where should I post it? It's a really, really simple page, just a quick graphic, not HTML or PHP. Perhaps the term "page" might have been misleading. It's just a background, a smattering of text, and two colored boxes. Reid
