One of my ‘beefs’ with church web design are those pages designed by webservants who assume that because there are 216 browser-safe colors that they need to employ all of them on their web site.
Don’t do this! Instead, settle on a simple color scheme – three colors is the industry norm, five if you add black-n-white. If you don’t know where to start, here is a nice little resource that offers color combination for web pages, color combinations, color charts for web pages, web page color combinations, web page design and layout – all via webdevelopersnotes.com.

“use employ”?
Owww! My eyes! It burns!
and if you have internet explorer, you can use the very nice Color Schemer.
