Wow! Really? I love orange and blue – they look COOL!

Thanks for the update, Yaro. It’s always great to hear how your various businesses are going and the little sneak peeks of things to come. I’m looking forward to your “white paper”. I don’t mean to dump on your colour scheme further but, I too don’t really like the orange/blue combination. But then again, this is one of the sites that, more often than not, I read in Bloglines, my feed reader of choice.

Jason you’re entitled to your opinion. The colour scheme, while certainly something I care about matters little compared to conversion rates, so the new site design will have much the same colour scheme and probably won’t be something we test to improve either since it’s impact isn’t as significant as the text and layout.

As much as I like Yaro…and BetterEdit it hurts my eyes to see the colour scheme. Sorry Yaro — I just really think the colors of betterdit are gaudy. Than again I am more into Apple-like designs…that are clear, smooth, and easy to navigate.

Oh, I’d like to say too – I think orange and blue go REALLY well together – seriously; when I think of a business op. that I’m going to pursue, I think my logo will be orange/blue.
