Red, white, blue effecitvely

    I'm looking for a way to implement Red, White and Blue as a webpage's color scheme. My client has these colors in his logo/signage and wants to bring that over to the website.

    Anyone have any sites they've seen/made/templates/etc. that use this color scheme without looking elementary?

    Rep will be left, and thanks :)

    I posted a blog about this, you might want to read it. It details a few free color tools that might be helpful to you: Color Scheme Generator, Color Contrast and Brightness Analyzer and Color Schemes. You can find it here: webfabric.blogspot.com/2007/07/free-color-tools-for-web-designers.html

    I hope it is helpful to you.

    That's a very nice design there ninjamuk, thank you for linking that.

    The client is an automotive dealer - really not fitting the niche that you normally see these colors on, but the info you guys have posted should help :)

    Rep's been added for all of you.

    Like the EA Sports webpage - integrating red and blue accents on menus/headers/etc on a white background is the best way to go. Just go online and just search websites and see interesting ways on how they did it.
