Should I keep my website's colour scheme?

Looks good but i just hate frames. I would like it more if it was all 1 page with tables...and there was some more defining lines.
 
Pick 3 - 4 colors that complement each other and stick with them. What you have looks good, but I would steer away from fades.
 
Well these are the things I plan on changing since I bet no one else will be able to focus only on the colour scheme 😉

- Frames are definetly gone

- Title will be in a table, sitemap will be below the title

-Only the homepage will have the animated flash title, the others will get a static flash image (*rant* when oh when will there be a standard vector image format *end rant*)

-Sitemap will obviously be horizontal

Any other suggestions?

- Keep large bodies of text black and at default size
- The "Get blah blah" banners are tacky, IMHO
- I'm a minimalist, get rid of the colored tables
- Site intros serve no real purpose and most users skip over them

Feel free to ask any other questions.
 


<< - Keep large bodies of text black and at default size >>



Efficient but boring IMHO. I'm willing to sacrifice a little efficiency




<< - The "Get blah blah" banners are tacky, IMHO >>



I don't like them either but I also want people to view my website correctly so I leave them there anyways




<< - I'm a minimalist, get rid of the colored tables >>



Hmmm... I'll think about that, but I think they are a pretty good way to group the information. I don't want them in black because I think it's a little boring.

I agree, I almost always skip over them. I used to have headlines from iSyndicate.com but since they changed their business model, I had to put something there 🙂

i personally hate flash site.. =\ that was an instant de-bonifier for me..

you need to have more contrasting colors.. have some more darks and other colors that go with blue well.. try to fill it up a bit aswell and youll have a great looking site 🙂
 
Definitely redo that site. I don't know what to tell you that hasn't already been said, though. Berid of the frames and use tables.

For the colour I'd say generally keep the scheme but perhaps modify it. For main bodies of text I wouldn't use such a bright colour. Just darken it or use black or something. Just an idea. But you should probably change the whole design and see how it looks then, we may all have a different opinion at that point. Good luck!
 
The grey buttons are kinda boring. Maybe you could try something which complements the blue, like orange for instance?

And the frames makes your center page difficult to follow.
