Website Color Selection

[magicmike Participant Total posts: 4]

I struggle over the selection of colors for my clients’ websites. I am not also sure how to communicate with clients on that and how to look for some input from them. Asking them to give me colors they like is usually ending with an epic failure – a horrible selection of colors :). Any advice?

I often ask clients to send me examples of sites which colors they like, then I select correct pallet based on the links they sent me. I found also my clients like very much this tool http://design-seeds.com/search to communicate with me about the colors selection.

Some other interesting resources:

• http://www.colorcombos.com/ (ready to use color palettes)
• http://www.pictaculous.com/ (image to palette)
• Also, any kind of directory of showcases with web design awards such as http://www.awwwards.com/ are a great resource of inspirations.
