Web sites will Go Pink during the month of October to bring attention to Breast Cancer Awareness Month, get people talking about breast cancer, and raise money for research. But to be clear, raising money isn’t the primary purpose of this web event. The hope is that you turn your site pink (in whatever way works for your site), educate yourself about the multiple issues related to Breast Cancer, then take that knowledge and tell someone else what you’ve learned.

A Little Inspiration If You Please..?

Natalie Jost has just published an article entitled, Going Pink & Getting Inspired, which is a great read.

Finding the right combination of color to go with your pink is a tough task. Designers can spend a great number of billable hours on finding just the right colors before a design really gets anywhere. There are hundreds of tints and shades of any particular color, and even pink, as plain as it seems in its bubblegum stereotype, actually has the same number of combinations as any other color. The trouble is in finding something to compliment it.

There’s some examples of pinkified sites and 5 colour palettes to help get you started down the road to a pink October. Lots of good ideas, and definitely a fair share of inspriation.

Thanks, Natalie!
