1.0 out of 5 stars This book has been released with serious errata., 11 Dec 2001

Marten Gallagher (Annery Kiln Web Design, Devon, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Colour Harmony for the Web (Color Harmony) (Paperback)

This book deals with the issue of colour, harmony and relevance of different colour combinations when used on websites with different themes. Its whole basis is colour and how they sit with each other.There is some narrative - reports from the author's light chats with webdesigners talkoing in no great deoth about their colour choices.It is, however, the fact that this book has been released with a full page erratum slip in the front. These are no slight errors. It explaisn that, for example a bright green has been substituted throughout fo what should have been dark blue; bright red for magenta; orange for a deep magenta; a brogt yellow for a pale pink. There are nine of these errors. There are a further three typographical errors noted relating to the colour kix of some colours.Frankly this is ridiculous. Only a cyncical publisher could have let this be released. It is impossible to use as a reference without remembering all the time to refer to the flimsy erratum slip. Large expanses of colour in the 'harmonies' look garish. It is a joke...

5.0 out of 5 stars Does exactly what it says on the cover!, 8 Sep 2001

Linda Kennedy "daisy-day" (Sussex, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Colour Harmony for the Web (Color Harmony) (Paperback)

Excellent colour reference book. Good opening chapters explaining RGB and CMYK processes and the psychology of colour. This is followed up by chapters headed Romantic, Vibrant, Nostalgic etc and illustrating web sites fitting each type. The end of each chapter is accompanied by relevant colour combinations - there are so many you will be spoilt for choice!

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick & Easy Web colour reference, 23 Mar 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Colour Harmony for the Web (Color Harmony) (Paperback)

A good visual reference book for busy web designers, who just want to cut to the chase.

At the same time though this book is quick but informative, offering various visual guides through colour charts & various colour harmony schemes.

It is also well presented, and GOOD value for money! (rare these days).

A must for those who lack colour understanding.
