Swatches

Picking colors is harder than I though. Lots of the combos I like don't pass the contrast test.

Here's what I've been playing with. Let me know what you think.

Be wary of green! I feel like green can look really garish unless it's carefully balanced with other similar shades that look kind of subtle. If you want high contras, I think green and white can be used to look really crisp and fresh, but green with black often looks kind of goth to me.

The color contrast site is very helpful. I have some color combinations in mind and this was helpful in eliminating some of them.
