Identify the perfect color combination for your webpage


My work involves writing Java software on a daily basis. I occasionally work on web development as well. These days I am working on a small web application and wanted to quickly identify some colors which should be part of the multi - panel layout which I am designing. Doing color coordination is very important while designing a web site. Colors play a vital role in the website's reception. Any website with suitable color coordination is easy on the eyes and users love to spend time there

Colorschemedesigner.com is the best resource I have come across for identifying the different color which should be part of a web site. This website helped me in identifying basic 4 colors which are easy on the eye and for a great color co-ordination. On loading the web site we are presented with a smart interface which has a color palette displayed.


moving the cursor around color combinations can be updated. This can be done by moving around the hollow circle on the grid. Further the range of colors can also be increased upon by updating angle. This provides us with multiple choices of colors. If that's not all we can also see how the finished web page would look like by selecting Light/Dark page example. The sample page uses colors selected from  the palette and provide a decent example of a web page made out of colors selected. Highly recommended for all web developers.
