Which 2 color schemes do you like the best for our new site design?
We're currently working on updating our forums to a new mobile-friendly theme. I'm looking for some opinions of which general color scheme you think would work best for BookTalk.org. Please look at these 3 attached color schemes and tell me which one you like the best. Actually, vote for your favorite 2 of 3 color schemes.
Each color scheme is comprised of 5 different colors. I drew a #1, #2 and #3 on each set of 5 colors. Please don't think I am referring to the one colored band directly below the hand-drawn number. That's just where I chose to draw the number. All 5 colors are part of the theme.
Please feel free to post your thoughts after you take the poll. Keep in mind these are to be considered accent colors. The text will be black and the post background very light. These colors are for the category and forum backgrounds.
Some highlights of the new theme... (no matter which color we pick)
1. The forums will soon be on the home page. There won't be a home page + forums page. They will be one in the same.
2. The forums will be mobile-friendly so you can enjoy them on your mobile devices.
3. Our Google rankings will increase significantly over time after this upgrade so that we will have more people joining. Mobile-friendly sites score higher in search engines. And because people will now be able to enjoy BookTalk.org on their cell phones we can expect an increase in overall activity.

I have a mild preference for #3 over #2, and for #2 over #1, but really they all seem good to me. I am the wrong person to be asking - others are much better at imagining and judging which combinations look good.

Thanks Harry. I like all 3 but I tend to gravitate towards #2. Well, I originally did but #3 is nice too. Heck, they all are nice. I'm excited to break free from this depressing green we currently use.

Chris, I like the green. It’s not depressing. It’s relaxing!!!! We don’t want any aggressive go, go go colours. Pink and grey would be nice though!!!
