Midnight (eagle) green

Correct! And the eagle is...

I have always been enamored of the Eagles' choice of color. But I didn't use silver and black on the pawn site, because that would be too obvious...

Almost, but not quite Rich Black?

D'OH!

I also ran across an Islamic Green and was all like WTF?

Very cool!

Pete Zicato · 02-28-2011, 02:10 PM

Ok, so what is #003943?

Well if you make the outer background the same color, the context of the site doesn't stand out, so I decided to go "10 darker".

Shawnee123 · 02-28-2011, 02:22 PM

Is that like "1 louder"?

Undertoad · 02-28-2011, 02:38 PM

It is!

I've built 12 smallbiz websites at this point, a number I'd hoped would be much larger but hey! We will see how the cookies crumble, or whatever. My design skills improve over time and these sites are on the order of two hours design per page. They could look better with eight hours... ah but this is how it goes. Anyway they look better than the competition for these types of business, which is the point.

They all look very nice. Do some of them not have domain names, so they have to be on yours? (Is that even what it's called?) Does this cost you, or them?

Undertoad · 03-29-2011, 03:04 PM

Thanks! They are "in the process" if they are under my domain name... usually waiting for the customer to review it and accept the domain name they want.

In Gina's Best Nails - I've never seen those kind of chairs before. Is that what the French call a bidet?

They'd get mad if you peed (or worse) in them.

They're for pedicures, you philistine. (I've never had a pedicure. I have monkey toes.)

I thought a bidet was for washing your feet.
