Are you color blind? I am. I don’t care much about the colors I choose.
Grey scale is cool and alllll…. but try adding like, a bright blue or red to make it pop a little.
If your colour blind just pick the colours you want and to fuck with everyone else . I argue blind i am correct with my colours even if i am wrong .
The first one looks unfinished. The white background with the gray isn’t quite cutting it. I don’t care for the second one at all. The last one, I love (lurve the gray), but, try adding a bit of color.
I love grayscale, and lots of “white space” even if it’s gray space. I would question your ability to see contrast; sites are great as they are but could use more tonal contrast. You could play around with making the grays duotones or tritones. That’s always fun.
Very interesting answers. Thank you all!
Hey, btw can you guys tell me what browser you’re viewing my sites with?
That can just be your style, nothing more. I think it’s a very cool and striking effect.
like pandoraboxx said you are lacking contrast.
try harder, and try color.
iTnes has taken grayscale to a whole new level. You’re in good company.
Your design style has an interesting urban energy to it. Very postmodern.
I am viewing them with Safari 4 beta. And they look fine.
I like the minimalist effect, but a bit of color would be good. Maybe throw in a tiny bit of red or orange with the grey.
Also, funny how your avatar is a color wheel…
I’m using Safari 3.2.2, and I also looked at them on Firefox 3.0.10. I’m on a relatively new MacBook.
I like them because most of the pictures are colourful and stand out. I’m using google chrome.
Why don’t you use Adobe Kuler?
Or buy a book like this? It has loads of good colour combinations with both CMYK and RGB references and they are catagorised. I use it and it works ok for me if I’m struggling.
