it's a good idea to run every document/flyer/sign/newsletter/written or designed anything past another party before publishing or distributing it; one never knows how it may come across to others. sometimes there are things that are connoted that one did not intend, and sometimes the author may want to connote things that don't easily come across to others. case in point: recently weyes created an excel document and wanted to use 2 colors that contrasted and stood out but that were both legible within the spreadsheet. complimentary colors on the color wheel are a good choice, and of the 3 pairs of complimentary colors (red & green, blue & orange, yellow & purple), red & green was the most legible. but it seemed too christmas-y to weyes. she showed a few color choices to a couple of co-workers and they happened to pick the red & green as the most visually pleasing as well. when the christmas-y idea was brought up, they said they hadn't thought of that. so red & green it was .tune in tomorrow.
