Stickers; the psychology of color..

[CAZ]

Does anyone know or have a link to a psychological color chart?

I am going to have 2000 3 x 4.75 inch stickers made. They will be white with ONE other color; either the background as a color with white text or white background with a color text.
the text will be simple...

POKER
PLAYERS
GOTFLOP.COM

Everything will be centered and stretched to fill the entire sticker POKER taking up about the top half or so...
i digress, ANYWAY...
what i need to decide on is the second color i SHOULD use in order to
A. grab the most attention.,
B. be easy to read
C. be psychologically the most likely to help with retention.

I thought about red, (white text red background)

Any thoughts?

I just thought i would answer my own question
Red is out, so is blue...looks like green may be the way to go...

Purple encourages people to spend money.

I wouldn't pay to much attention to that psychology of color BS

I spent years in the snowboard industry where stickers ruled the day.
You want the ones that "People can see!" the further the distance the better.

White text on Red sounds pretty good to me.

Take a few of your final art printouts, set'em up & start backing away, the one you can read the furthest wins!

cheers

The text had been placed according to restrictions set forth by a template(closeness to edges).
Any suggestions on readablity, or anything else?

why did you ever say "red is out"?

RED: Excitement, energy, passion, desire, speed, strength, power, heat, love, aggression, danger, fire, blood, war, violence, aggression, all things intense and passionate.

I would try to put the url all on one line


The way it is setup now someone might try typing:

www.pokerplayersgotflop.com

or

www.playersgotflop.com


or even worse someone might register one of those domain names and hijack your advertising :angry:

I was wondering the same thing until I saw the domain it was hosted on. I liked the red one by the way.
