A Change of Scenery

Every now and again I get a terrible urge to redesign my website because I get totally sick of the coluors I'm using. This is generally not an easy thing to do considering I have something like a dozen different templates for the site, some of which have to be edited online.

Even though I have a background in art, I'm not very confident in choosing colours that work in a website (art and graphic design are two very different disciplines!), so I'm listing the 10 colour schemes I have whittled my choice down to below. Please help me out by choosing your favourite and letting me know your choice in the comments. But before you do, a few notes:

Berry summer and ihateorange appeal to my colour theory obsessed self because they have all the "contrast colour" theory going on

Ritz carlton and Summer are possibly a bit too subdued but I'm not sure

Strawberry-Chocolate and Chocolate Caramel make me hungry

Happy Day, Purll and Parchini are lovely and bright and happy but would need to be used very carefully in order to not be too overpowering. I think that making any one of them work would be fun though.

Here are the colours.
