Color Wheel
Understanding color theory will help you to understand how color works with your eBay Store. A good tool to learn about color is via the color wheel created by Sir Isaac Newton. This color wheel allows you to view groupings of colors that go well together as well as colors that don't.
Complementary Colors: Colors that are opposite one another on the color wheel. For example: red and green or blue and orange.
Analogous Colors: Colors that sit next to each other on the color wheel. For example: green, yellow-green, and yellow; or red, red-orange, and orange.
