If I have coloured my menus #FF3400 with a hover colour of #343334 what is the best shadow colour for this?
I’ve currntly taken off the shadow as the original colour was white with a grey shadow but it looked bad when I changed the colour. I’m not too sure when it comes to mixing colours and shadows so will be glad of some pointers
Many thanks
As an artist, the shadow tone of any color (colour for those of you in the UK :)) can be mixed by darkening with black, and adding a bit of the complement. Example: To mix the shadow tone of blue, darken it with black and add a touch of orange.
You have a very nice looking site started there, i would say dark very thin shadows would complement your design best. Just barely noticeable would do. You`ve done a great job so far , i like it!
