[Coil-l] COIL Website color scheme

[Clements, Helen]

Elizabeth,

These are attractive!
Overall, I like parts of 4, 7, and 3 best.  I'd go for a little more contrast, especially in the dark tabs with light text.   I like the tan and green in 1, but the pink doesn't give much contrast.  What about the brick color from 7?  The drawback I see for several of them is that there's not much contrast in the tabs.
On a couple of the analogic schemes, I like the basic scheme but don't like that gray-blue on the tabs.  Try something with a bit more green in it.
Cheers!

Helen Clements

COILERS,

We do not have a finished logo yet for our new website and the color scheme will affect that.  We were asked to come up with color schemes now that we have the official OK-ACRL color.   I would like an approval on a couple of these color schemes by Sept 15th (2 weeks) so I can take them back to the web committee)  The logo color is green, but even though at first look this doesn't look pretty take a look at the ACRL website, it can look nice.

Please don't feel you have to choose just one.  Tell me all of them you like and if you want in order of preference.  Additionally the colors can be used in any order.  The browns, pinks, purples, whatever hues you  see can be used at the top of the page as the main color instead of green, but the color designer I used put the green at the top because it is the base color I put in (OK-ACRL) main color to get complimentary colors for a schema.
