Heeyz

I'm wondering which bgcolor to use on my website.
Is there any javascript.. or maybe some program which lets me loop trough various colors fonts etc?

Cheers
Thierry

Why dont you make your visitor chose the bgcolor?

Code:

<html>
<head></head>

<BODY>

<!-- The bgcolorchangerwhilevisitorspointingtheirmoouseonsomeletters script -->

<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='silver'">T</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightslategray'">r</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='azure'">y</a>
<br>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightgreen'">m</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightblue'">o</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='white'">v</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightslategray'">i</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='azure'">n</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightgreen'">g</a>
<br>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightblue'">y</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='white'">o</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='silver'">u</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightslategray'">r</a>
<br>

<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightgreen'">a</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightblue'">r</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='white'">o</a>

<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightslategray'">n</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='azure'">d</a>
<br>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightgreen'">o</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightblue'">n</a>
<br> 
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='white'">t</a>
<A HREF="" ONMOUSEOVER ="document.bgColor='lightslategray'">h</a>

Lol well thats quite fun.
But don't really like to let my visitors do that

But there must be some applet or something out there
which lets you select trough all colors...

This is about as good as any:

Hit the HSB tab

There's a free program called Color Set that lets you mix and match colors to see what they'll look like on your site.

prissed i took a look at the colorscheme. Maybe it's just getting used to but i didn't really like the combinations.
Kisk. That picker didn't work.
