This is something that I've struggled with for a while now and I really want to correct it.
Whenever I create a web design I use a colour pallete of 2 or 3 contrasting colours normally for things like buttons and backgrounds but what I struggle with is choosing the colours for the type so that they look more pleasing to the eye and fit with the 2 or 3 colours I have already picked.
My colour choices in the past for body text have been around #999999 or #aaaaaa but I notice that in the designs of designers I follow online their type choices are swayed ever so slightly towards one of the main colours in their colour palletes.
Is there a proven method of how to pick colour for type in this way or is it just done by using the eye?
I would love to know how it's done or if there are any tutorials out there on how to pick colour for type that fits with the existing colour pallete.
