Color Sigging

[Gin]

What Color do you use in a Sig?
Do you use any Color that Matches the Pic?
or
Do you use Colors that Clashes with the pic your Working with?

Those are the only 2 options I came up with at the moment.

If you have other options, do tell

There are 5 main paths I take.

Complementary: Go with a Scheme that takes two complementary colors (colors across from eachother on the Color Wheel)

Triad: Choose three colors that cross in a triangle on the Color Wheel

Main Image Dom:: Most of the Scheme takes the stock color but has minor colors as well

Monotone: All or mostly one color

Gut Feeling: ...gut feeling

I wouldn't use matching colors, you want to use "complimentary" colors. A lot of people sometimes use pink and blue in their sigs because it's a great color combination. And it pretty is (though I never use it. lol) But having colors that simply match seem too unappealing, and usually may come out monotone.

Damn you ZG. We happened to post at the same time. lol.

I try to stick to a single primary color and one or two secondaries to go with it. Too much random color clashing is a big design no-no. desu
