    Ok...

    This is my new project:

    http://www.silverlineweb.com

    Any ideas on colors that would go with that gray? I like that gray color (404040) a lot, just looking for another color or two that would accent it...

    Thanks!

    Nice looking site
    Love the gray too - and can see what your dilemma is :|)

    Have you tried any of the online color matching tools?

    Google 'web site color matching' and you'll get a swag of them. They let you play around and match colors until you find something OK.

    Don't change lite grey tones. Change dark grey color with nice blue tone.

    Hi Tar

    Like your final result but where's the 'Silverline' ??? - apart from the text in LH nav bar. It's more 'greenline' now

    I felt that the greys were more aligned to the 'silver' concept.

    Haha, greenline...

    Yeah, I agree, having silver/gray was closer to the title, but it seemed too bland... I even got a few PMs about how ugly it was...

    So I did a complete makeover, and didn't notice it didn't have any silver until after I was done...

    I'm going to figure out a way to throw a silver bar in there somewhere...

    Thanks for the input :)

    Very simple. No links other than home and about.
