Please provide your input on the attached color scheme for the site.
My preference is Option 1d, Option 1C is a close second.

If you don't like any just post a reply to the message. I forgot to add that option (on purpose):p

Option 1a :)

I also love option1a...but the background of option 1d matches with the top logo...but I love the alternate tint color (columns) in option 1a.

Perhaps it would look best if we can get them combined and have the tint replaced in option 1d with the one in option 1a.

Namaste,

All of the alternatives look a bit too bright, and you seem to have started with a more intense red or yellow color.

Can we try both red and yellow but with the same gadation of intensities as in the original blue scheme.

The default blue that we have now has reminded some of a Christian color scheme ~ but when I first saw it my impression was of the same blue wash that Brahmins use throughout India on their own homes, and the color of white cloth that has been overly treated with an old-fashioned blue-bleach.

The yellow saffron color is commoly used by Vaishnavas, but could we also have a more earthy ochre color (with slightly more orange/apricot/peach) ? Hard to describe in words, although more generally used by Sannyasins ~ commonly called Geru, Gerua, or Bhagava.

The darkest grey background is too dark, and it is not necessary to try to match it to the logo because the logo can be adjusted to suit.

Namaste,

I like X (although X and Z would both look good) perhaps better with a lighter surrounding background color.

I like X too but may be the background could be a little lighter with a different shading for columns?
