Another really good layout, good color scheme, nice sidebar/widget items.
Good spacing. Comic-caption style H-tag headers. Attachment 636 |

XOWii.com has a nice combo of red and gray.
However, I'd take notice that the site uses a larger-than-1024 page width, which is stupid. At least a third or more of all web users still have 1024x768 (or lower! yikes!) screen resolutions, and nobody likes a site with left-right scroll bars. Most people just leave badly-designed sites, myself included. Flash is overused, and the site loads slow as molasses, too, even on an average broadband connection. But this post is about the colors, and it at least did something well! Attachment 832 Full sized higher quality PNG in attached RAR. |

This trio of sites has great shading and colors, very colorful without looking like a box of 8 crayons.
NOTE TO ALL MEN: Don't let the ladies catch you looking at these sites, else they might get the wrong ideas! (Marriage, new house, kids!) :p Attachment 834 Attachment 835 Attachment 836 |

Good use of darks -- black, gray palettes and blues, plus simple gradients and linear graphics. Lacks typical gaudiness found on amateur gamer sites. Attachment 1301 |
