[quote=Alexanpt]Btw, if you don't get what a monotone color palette is, here are examples: (u'll definitely get what it is by seeing examples, I'm sure!!!) http://www.colorhunter.com/tag/monotone/1 [u]And some explanation if u still don't get it:[/u] [b]Monotone Chromatic[/b] A monotone color scheme is just one single hue and its variations in terms of tints, shades and saturation. Using saturation and tint/shade variations of a color is always good. However, in most cases I would advise against using a fully monochromatic scheme, as there is a risk of monotony. Using it with pure white or black can be efficient, though. [b]Monotone Achromatic[/b] A monotone achromatic color scheme is a special instace of the monotone scheme which consists of only neutral colors ranging from black to white. A scheme like this can beefficient, but it can very easily look boring. Using an acromatic scheme with just one bright color for highlight can be very effectful.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]the question is...are we allowed to leave an element of color to add depth?[/quote]

[quote=Alexanpt][quote=The_Nameless_Bard] the question is...are we allowed to leave an element of color to add depth? [/quote] I think yeah.[/quote]
