    MYLOGO
    I want to develop magazine type website but I can't find any proper color combination for this. Which color should I use for menu bar or font. I tried to do this but it just doesn't look professional.

    Use one of the colors as background, white color for font (maybe black if you go with the lighter pinkish color as background). Use the blue in the logo for link color, and use normal black or dark grey for block text.
    I don't see the problem?

    White and black have always worked well for a magazine / news type website. When I say black I don't mean #000000; I mean #222222 - #555555; Pure black can be a bit overpowering.

    This is my suggestion. Use the lighter colors as your various backgrounds and box layers. then accent with the blue and pick. As qwikad suggested #222 looks nice for your text. Readers want blackish text on a whiteish background. Easier on the eyes. I hope this helps!
