    Drunk Driving Web Design

    I offered to do my physics teacher's web site on drunk driving for free. However, the dilemma is color scheme. He wanted to do red and black at first, because he wants it to be something people are going to pay attention to (which is understandable), but I told him it lacks professionalism.

    What color scheme do you guys suggest that implies professionalism and the same positive attributes black and red would give off at the same time?

    Black and yellow- like street signs.

    I totally thought this was going to be about doing web design while drunk.

    I've done that.

    Black,white, greens and yellows. This isnt my idea, dad used to design adverts and company logos. He said its hard to say without knowing your target but these are inpact colours designed to shock or cause you to remember. Poor old sod was half asleep, im in trouble when I go around tomorrow!

    You can use red and black, just make the red a dark shade thats all. But it would help to know the general market/group the site is aimed at.

    I like the black and yellow idea.
    Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?

    Yeah, no wonder he got fired! Just joshing, its none too fetching but feel right for its purpose. You will work magic im sure. Good luck with it though.

    It reminds me of one of those cheesy Hail Christianity sites hosted on geocities.

    Thought that was a quick mock. Im just saying that it may not be pretty but it feels right for the job, its drink driving, solemn.
