If you are also weak in making good color combinations like I am, then you may also be preferring not to go for wrong combinations if not the right ones, the way I like. It is better to be on safer side, right?
Here is a list of forbidden color-combos which guides you about the combinations which are perceived as weird by graphics designers like Red & Green shouldn’t go together without any color in-between but still there are combos which are shown as making sense in protest to the so-followed forbidden ones. Being a color lover, I couldn’t just ignore this post.
