Hello all. this is a small sample of a layout I am doing for an online community/magazine/newsletter. It is basically a church organization but they said they dont want the typical church look and typical church imagery and they are geared towards a younger crowd. Let me know your opinions about ths color scheme would ya? give me the good bad and the ugly. ---

The layout works well in 800x600 and in higher resolutions. The deep yellow jumps out a bit, but that will be toned down some with some content over the top of it. If you’re aiming at a younger audience then the small type font is probably OK, it’s just us older pharts that have problems with it. 😉 ---

yeah they wanted the side area to jump out but I still may tone it down a bunch. I tried to make it fit for everyone even the real high res. I am going to go ahead and fill in the top. With then nav and stuff. But thanks for the critique. Wanted to get opinions on the colors…give me more… ---

yeah the yellow is alil premature but the header and nav were going to make more sense of whatever color I place in that area. Thanks replode ---

I am neutral. other than reversed text is extremely diff to read, but the chances are that since this is geared toward a younger audience, they won’t be expecting many visitors willing to read anything… 😉 Rev ![](http://www.aulman.com/rev.gif) ---

actually it is a online mag so if it is hard to read I need to make some adustments,… Hey rev is it the size or the contrast? ---

kinda both. the size is small, but if the reveresed text is for a decent amount of text, the contrast will be hard on the eyes as well. You might want to enlarge it just a bit… that could be a happy medium (young eyes are used to seeing white text on black bg with all of the adult sites they visit 🙂 ) Rev ![](http://www.aulman.com/rev.gif) ---
