Pick 3 colours or pick 1 colour?
Decide if you want to pick 3 colours for your website or just pick 1 main colour. If you select the 1 colour option you will also be able to select a neutral colour scheme that we have prepared for you that complements your main colour.
Select your preferred option with a click of your mouse inside the red square. If you select the ‘Pick 1 colour’ option go to the section below labeled Option 2: Pick 1 colour for further instructions.
Notes
- Select the Pick 3 colours option if you want to set all of the colours on your website.
- If you want to keep things simple just select the ‘Pick 1 colour’ option’. With the 1 colour option we will also provide some neutral colour palettes for you to select from. The neutral colour palettes have been designed to work well with the widest range of colours.
