Which red do you like?

Red Test

I added black, white, and gray so the eyes could better compare.

edit2:
I have added another bitmap using those 2 colors, but as part of the graphics they're in.
http://www.sagalore.com/anandtech/redtest2.bmp You can see that the left red has a dark gradient to it.

edit:
Also, if you are color blind, please post and let me know which color or shade looks better to you.

Why?

I'm working on a redesign of http://www.antisource.com. I looking at other templates to get an idea of what I'm going to do. I came across the Axonz-Red template at http://demo.geeklog.net and that red looks pretty nice in contrast to the charcoal colored bar. But, a lot of webmasters have commented how much they like the current color scheme and red I'm using. I have trouble matching colors up sometimes.

You must have some really huge resolution. I'm using 1600x1200 on a laptop and it's plenty big to me. 😛

oh and I really like your sig
 
..to me right red is deeper/darker. Left is lighter slightly washed out looking..but both look red.

That's another issues I'm having - trying to get the colors to look good on multiple monitors and lcds.

I think I'm only running 1024x. I posted when I first woke up, so perhaps my eyes weren't fully open yet 😉

The sig is a quote from Tommy Douglas.
 
what you going to make a red background?
Ugh,
not as bad a black background,with white type.

I prefer white or light gray background with black type.

No, it's going in the header along with the logo.
