Color can convey a lot of emotion when it comes to designing anything from a product to a website to an advertisement to a logo and so much more. What do you think the importance of colors on a website are? What is a color scheme and why is it important to have when designing? Explain any thoughts you might have around color in design.

Colors are very important because they can make a viewer happy, sad, excited, interested, and bored. To make them feel the emotion you want them to feel you need to color code accordingly. A color scheme is a group of colors that work together to form a pretty bouquet of beauty. It is important to have a color scheme so you website does not get the boring black and white, maybe a little gray, website. You want to make your colors make the viewer stay on as long as possible, and this does not mean by adding hundreds upon hundreds of  neon color, that will get the viewer's eyes hurting and they will want to leave. Also you need to make sure the color-combo you have created still allows the viewer to see and read the text you have, yellow and white is probably not a good combination.
