Coloured Text on Header Backgrounds

[toolman]

Hi there,

I am playing around with some possible colour schemes for my new website and wondered what people’s thoughts are on coloured text on a coloured background.

I have come up with the following examples and wondered which is people’s favourite?

Idea #1:

Idea #2:

Idea #3:

As you can see, my colours are green and purple, but not sure if the purple text should be used on the green background?

Any comments would be great, thanks!

#2 is the easiest to read to my eyes. The green is a bit bright for my taste but of the three, #2 works the best.
