    Can't take the credit for this info graph, (youthedesigner.com rightfully deserves credit), but I thought this was really interesting. It takes you into a deeper into understanding the effects colors have on an individual. Too cool not to share. Hope you enjoy! http://www.youthedesigner.com/2013/06/13/infographic-a-color-guide-for-designers/

    Pretty good. Thanks. Color psychology and NLP are of interest to me. I've always been interested in the psychological effects of color on commerce since reading about orange/blue buttons in a/b tests having higher clickthrough/buy rates than other colors.

    We talked about it a bit 30 years ago when I was at Uni. Don't try to sell New Zealanders anything in yellow and green packaging, but black and white works. Conversely the Aussies love yellow and green packaging and don't like black and white. Use red, white and blue for America (and countless other countries).

    Great information, it would help designers if they keep this in mind before beginning their work.
