So, it's Sunday and I am on my way to work, running late, but still needing to cross this blog post off my list. I believe I promised to discuss more in depth about how I should design the look of my website. However, here, pre-coffee and late, I decided to mention my choice of "color palettes."
Well, I am completely uncreative and have somewhat ignored our lessons on how to chose colors for websites. I have definitely ruled out anything pastel or too red. In fact, I am definitely leaning toward a yellow and blue combination. First, yellow is my favorite color -- and blue is a nice complement to yellow. Also, these are not only Drexel's colors -- but the color of my undergraduate university.
Anyway, that is all I have to say about that. I believe I will present separate colors for my links -- you know, to let the visitor to my website know what pages she has visited and such. These colors will likely be the standard blues or orange.
And, perhaps next time I will talk more about potential topics for my pages -- and ignore the larger more complicated discussions for much later!
Thank you.

I think blue and yellow would be a good color combination -- you'd be able to find tones that have enough contrast from each other and still look good. One word of caution, though -- if you've got a lot of blue and yellow on your page, your links may not stand out very much if they are also blue and yellow/orange. I wonder if there's something else you could do with your links to make them "pop"?
