    Hey guys,

    I need some design suggestion(s) based on my site's color scheme.....

    www.Date-Rater.com

    Some people thought there was "too much red" and I should use an additional color than just RED. My users also like to red design, but I think it could look a little better with some creativity - I just need some help!

    What color schemes do you think I should use with a site like this?

    Let me know your thoughts and suggestions! - any advice welcome!

    Hi,

    Yes it's very red but that's ok for a dating site, intimate!

    For the people that say too much red, what they are saying is add more depth to the forum look.

    Well, I mean to me it seems like this is another one of those wouldyouhitthis.com or hotornot.com type of things. So if you want to give your self more exposure and become more popular then you need to be able to standout above them.

    What I would first do is would give more of a comfortable feeling, and not so bright. Right now it is all red and bright and is sticking out and like "IN YOUR FACE" type of color scheme, after sitting here on this site to much it will make your eyes or head hurt.

    I would recommend you toning them down to some more lighting colors, some whites, light reds, light blues, something of this nature. You need to give a more professional clean crisp appeal.

    I hope this helps if you have any other questions please let us know.
