That doesn't really explain a lot for people who don't know.

Sameer, your colour thing confuses me :P even with the explanation.

I always used to use this website, for colour things.

Black, blue sometimes go along with red.

blue is a contrasting color. it doesnt go well with red.

you could try analogous colors like orange and yellow or purple and orange.

or you could go with the complementary/split complementary colors which would be green, green and yellow, green and purple, or green and orange.

I would say black. Maybe for a little contrast with a bit blue.

you can get contrast without using colors that dont look aesthetically pleasing together. =/

red is a warm color, blue is a cool color.

etc. it all depends.

Black and white, imo.

But really it's in the eye of the beholder. :)

according to the color wheel it would be red blue and yellow for your base colors but unless your going for a rainbow effect i wouldnt choose thoughs maybe a little white and some black maybe but red is a hard color to work with imo

white and maybe gray and then base colors
