Do these colors work together? - Fiel - 2009-05-14
I'm terrible with colors. I would love some help with this.
There are four distinct colors I'm using here:
Purple = 1st Heading
Blue = 2nd Heading
Light Grey = Editable/changeable text
Dark Grey = non-editable text

Fact: All guys are bad at colors.
I think all of the text should be white.

Gray gives the false impression that the cell is unavailable. Make them white.

I'd personally make the purple a bit darker (because dark purple is sexy) and the greys a touch lighter.
They look alright as is, but yeah.

I had tried that, but that makes those sections stand out too much.

I understand your concept using light and dark shades of gray, but I beg to differ with purple and blue. Those two colors are morose, especially seeing how they're pretty dark.

Now I'm going to say something that is true:
Excel's color limitations suck.

Eww excel eww >_>
Couldn't you try to mask over the cells with pictures or something? Or is that not possible with what you're doing?
