You Don’t Need to be a Designer to Create a Custom Color Scheme
By admin • Jun 9th, 2008 • Category: advanced, articles, design, features, skillsWhen it comes to blogging, nothing is more difficult for me than design, and when it comes to design, nothing is more difficult for me than picking a color scheme. Thankfully, though, I am married to a designer who is little by little teaching me to think like a designer. In the not-so-distant past, I decided to mix up the colors on my personal blog, and Chris used the opportunity to teach me the method he uses for generating a color scheme. Very little color theory was involved, which I was thankful for because I tried reading his color theory textbook, and I couldn’t get past page two. If you’re a blogger who isn’t a designer, I can imagine you have a hard time picking color schemes, too, so let’s use my personal blog as a case study and walk through his process.
