As lots of you know, I do a lot of freelance web design.
One site I'm working on, I have lost all inspiration.
It's a promotions company in The 'Fast. I need to use an orange and brown colour scheme. It's called [bruisedfruit] Promotions.
Any ideas??
I have work in progress at the mo if anyone wants to see where my thinking stalled.

http://thefella.co.uk/bfp/index4.htm is the latest idea.
I haven't received the content yet, so all the text is off my own site. And the graphics are just temporary so I can see layout.
I did do a vector of a sliced peach, but I don't think I'll use it, as it looks like a minge.

No help then.
You like sausages, but you hate to see how they're made.

And then the fruit beats up Mike and knocks him out and then at the post-fight interview the fruit says: nothing beats bruised fruit.

A standard bright backgroun pattern with a big squished fruit somewhere and u attack the corner of the content to it. Should be very colourful as it's a promotion thingy and fruit makes u think of all teh colours of hte rainbow.

I have no idea what creativity is.... well I do but apparently it havent even gotten near me so cant help u much... tho be carefull with brown, I think more of other things than bruiced fruit when seing brown m8...
my only good advice, FOR GODS SAKE KEEP IT SIMPLE, like the one u showed there, when ever I enter a website thats not simple I actually leave unless its very important...

Kiss (keep it simple stupid)
Maybe use a banana as you can get good shades of colour when it ripens...
Bruised fruit? Maybe a beaten up Graham Norton?

Hahaha. I don't get it.
I do really.
I'm gonna keep it simple, althought I might make the menu Flash, just to save on doing images lol.
Here's my peach that is kind of mingistic.
