Color Oven Lite Color Scheme

Below is a set of CSS color codes generated on my iPhone using the app, "Color Oven Lite". I like this app because it allows you to choose 1, base color, and the app then generates complimentary colors and suggestions for where to use them.

I'm currently overhauling 1, and building (from the ground, up) 2 websites. I find this little app incrediby useful, and plan to use it to either generate, or help inspire the color themes on each of my sites:

stephenbruington.com
iContactCongress.org
mayberrymill.com


@charset 'UTF-8';
body {
background-color : #293999;
}
p {
color : #182159;
}
h1 {
color : #060919;
}
a:link {
color : #3A51D8;
}
a:visited {
color : #4F5A99;
}
h2 {
color : #767B99;
}
h3 {
color : #031999;
}

Sincerely,

Web Design, meet Server-Side Programming

I've been interested in web development / design for over 10 years. I've dabbled, dawdled, played and did a little here and there, but nothing fancy...ever. I know a little HTML, I've gotten much better at CSS, but from there my knowledge terminates. What's missing? PHP, MySQL, ie: server-side programming.

I'm working on a major project that will require an extensive MySQL database with heavy PHP scripts running on all pages of the site. I once took a seminar on MS Access which taught me a little about relational databases, which turns out to be important because that's the 'heart and soul' of MySQL.

I found a book, "PHP in a Nutshell" which I plan to get my hands on soon. I'm hoping this book will help launch me into a whole new world of understanding and website development. My site idea requires a great deal more knowledge and experience than I have currently, so here goes nothing.

I'll post a vague summary of my project in the near future. For now, check out my other project here.
