Are there any colors you think are impossible to work with on websites?

For me, it's green.

I just tried making a theme on vB3 using green as the main color, the results weren't as I expected. x_x;;

I have no clue how whoever did it here on vB.org.

i don't think there is any color you cannot use on a website.
it's just the combination of colors which makes it impossible.

for example bright blue and yellow shouldn't be used on the same page.

as for green, i've had goo experiences with using darker green and grey tones.

I laughed when I read ... i've had goo experiences ... that's kinda too much info (even if it's a typo :) :)

Some things amuse me when *really* I should be doing other things :)

One of the hardest colors I find working with is purple. However with shades of pink and blue it can look nice :)

I've struggled with red in the past..
It's rather hard to make it look nice, while trying to keep up with a modern-ish look.

Red and white looks ok, but it just seems to lack something for me.

I just cannot work too well with purple, cyan or yellow...
