  Old  Blog colour?

I just finished a two-colour blog (red and white) and was wondering what colours you guys like blogs to be in.

Well, it depends what the blog looks alike
It's rather hard to say that one color is better than other, because sites are different

i think it depends on the 'mood' you want to set for your readers. a lot of the psychology behind colours and combinations will affect expectations and set the mood for users.

like something black, white and red may be more serious, violent, graphic, hardcore, dangerous, stuff like that.

while a blue, white and yellow is a little more light hearted, technology, sun, sky, open, fresh perhaps.

it will depend on your primary, secondary and highlight colours though and how you use them.

my two current favorite colour sites;

The color of a blog is not so much important for me, as long as you don't abuse with it..I don't like thick colored borders, dark background and anything that would make it harder to read the blog text

I prefer straightforward blogs, white background, very think borders around the posts, if any at all..something really simple and pleasant for the eyes..

My favorite color is Yellow-Green (#bf0)!


...but when it comes to colors for blogs (or anything), I agree with jabborwocky and eoz, it depends on what the site is about.
