About a year ago I designed my very first website (WQMC radio) for my school's radio station.. It's a pretty poorly done site, I admit it, but I STILL get slack about the color scheme! Why does everyone hate purple? I actually love the color on certain things but everyone seems to hate it.. I purposely avoiding using the color on my personal site because of the slack I got about it in the past- is purple really that ugly?

The logo is purple
Ah. Well when you said the color scheme I assumed the whole page was going to be varying shades of purple... kinda like BestBuy.

Works for me. I dont see what people's problem is. Someone isnt too comfortable with their sexuality....

it looks like right half is in color and the other half is in b/w. i don't know why people fixate on the purple. perhaps they use macs.

I don't have a problem with purple myself. The logo looks good to me, so I don't know why people are jumping up your ass about it...

The simple dimple reminded jake of the crimple in his nipple.

and Sally got lots of spam, which let her meet the computer man
then they had sex all night, until they got into a big ol' fight
then Sally began to hit the bottle, for her mom was her model
and Sally began to drink some more and she became a great big whore.

In the fall of '99 came an end to somehing which had no mend
then the man named Bush appeared, which half the country had feared
and when his reign had started the ecomomy up and farted
so he began a war, which no one knew the reason for
and all began to laugh and jeer, 'cept for those who hate the queer
when it will end no one knows, except for maybe his personal hoes
and that is all I have to say, for John Ashcroft may make me pay.
