Default Learning about colours

Colours is one of the hardest part to get "just right" when designing something for me. Do anyone know about articles that could come in handy on the subject? I don't think I'll be diving into any books just yet, if it's not very recomended.

Thank your for any help.

Default Color theory

Hey I know you mention that you wouldn't be diving into any books as of yet. However I believe the only way to get a grasp on color and its uses is not to scrape the surface. Articles are fine, but will they really inform you? I found a book by Steven Bleicher. It is the same book I had used in school it will cover many of the situation of applicable color and there uses. The human eye is complexed and perception is even more tricky.

i guess playing with colors comes from within... use the colors you like and which suit your design...
