how to use color theme for website frontend development - godtheonlytruth - 01-04-2014
Advance sorry for a very noob question :Smile: Can somebody please tell me or provide me some link to read about how we use color themes from sites like kuler.adobe.com to design frontend of a website. If there are five colors how we decide which color to use as background and which for buttons or links etc. Does the order of colors in theme tell something or we need to rely upon our own judgement?
I am an absolute beginner in web development specially frontend. Have read some html and css recently but am confused about usage of colors.
Appreciate your help
Regards
