I found this chart on the Internet to help me decide which colours to use (i.e. which compliment each other and which clash) as i was having difficulty deciding on what colour scheme to use.
Being an indie based magazine, EP isn't refined to dark colours like a rock magazine would be, or light ones for a Smash Hits! type magazine.
As the red side of the scale is already used for Q magazine, i think i will choose something different to this. Greens and yellows i think are too garish for my magazine and will not stand out well against a colour picture. It is because of this, i think i will go for a blue-themed magazine, perhaps using the occasional clashing colour for emphasis of cover/healines.
Please comment if you have any objections to this, otherwise i will assume everyone happy with my choice :)
