Designing your own website can be one of the most rewarding and also one of the most stressful thing that a person can do, because you know what you want, but how do you translate that into to seeing it, and not only seeing what you want, but also making it look nice aesthetically.
Now, many people pay people a lot of money to figure out what colors go well together as well as design their websites. I am not one of those people especially since I was turned onto Kuler a couple of years ago.
Kuler, is a great free online web tool released by adobe to create color schemes that can be used for anything from website design to film or whatever type of color scheme you are looking for.
Good blogging!
