Walking tour
In the poll, walking tours won. So I'm going to do it. Now I'm thinking that I need to pick colors that reflect the content of a walking tour. And I'm not sure what that even means! But one of my walking tours starts at 34th and Sansom and goes to the Woodlands Cemetery and 40th and Woodland...I know that much already. The first stop is the Penn Book Center.

I didn't get a chance to vote, but I think that would have been my choice also. I want a chance to get out and see more of Philly, but since I don't live in the city, I often don't get the time. I'm taking the summer off from school, so maybe I'll get a chance to take one of your tours then!
Joel, The Penn Book Center is an excellent choice for a stop on the tour. That is where I got the book for Dr. Reed's class "Image on the Edge" by Camille. They ordered it and had it for me in 5 days. I don't know what is up with Drexel's bookstore saying it is out of print. My copy is new and it was something like $16. As far as colors are concerned, my idea would be to plan at least a rough idea of your "tour" and then walk it, look around, and see what kind of colors you see. It would be cool to make the colors on the site reflect the colors of the city. just an idea.
Brice makes a good suggestion. When you see the photos and/or graphics you'll be using on your site, you might well want to select colors to complement them.
Fortunately, we'll be using CSS for all our colors, which makes a last-minute color change a piece of cake. --ELC
I'm glad you're doing your website on a walking tour. I think Philadelphia is a very walkable city and am looking forward to trying your tour!!
