Colors are oftentimes used in different ways. Just like in
interpreting things and having stuffs that would generate
meaning and understanding among people. So, in designs colors
are given importance for it may create an impression and would
communicate things that are not meant really. There could be
misunderstanding if it would not be taken essentially.
Colors should be one of your first concerns when it comes to
start a design. If you do not pay attention with the colors that
you will use for your site if just end up to be boring, chaotic
or just so dull, plain and lifeless site. Colors should be
chosen after careful considerations. If not, waste of money,
effort and whole thing will be done.
At this time web browsers can only see 216common colors although
there are 256 color pallets. When designing key elements in your
website just stay within your 216-color pallet for much
appreciated outcome and reduced damage for you and your site.
If you will go beyond 216 color pallet, you start to us colors
that do not exist within the browser. Remember that the browser
has to mix the colors that do not exist in order for the browser
to display color and it needs to take tiny dots from the colors
native to that browser to come up with the appropriate color
combinations.
Take note that some displays will distort the tiny dots to the
point where the image is so speckled that it does not appear as
a solid and firm color with distinct and appropriate
combinations. These just make the texts very hard to read over
the dithered color. Always use a browser safe color when using
solid color as a design element. Some of the safe colors should
be used with caution and ease. It is said that most of the eye
operations are muscular and just like other muscles it tires out
and even worn out.
In your eyes, cones respond to specific wavelengths of light.
Your eye is filled with color decoding cones. Sometimes the
opposite cones in your eye start to kick in. Pure yellow strains
your eyes more than any other color. Yellow attracts full
attention of the viewers.
Yellow and red colors sparingly are advisable to be used in your
designs. Use them in a field that you really want to focus their
attention with. Bright colors though are not that advantageous
for websites since it causes fatigue to the eyes of its viewers.
Colors can draw or irritate a viewer, so choose colors wisely
and appropriately.
