Default Psychology of colour

An interesting question, I like blue but I also like the red (such as on our BizFace - we changed that from blue to red to try to make it more interesting). Although some research does support the idea that people find blues and greens relaxing and red tones exciting (or a warning) there are clearly individual differences (as we have seen here!)

I suspect there are 'popular' sites out there that will tell you what your colour preference says about your personality, perhaps extroverts prefer red for example because they need more excitement (due to their low natural level of stimulation - honest that is why they are so excitable).

I wonder though if there are environmental aspects too, if you are used to working on one colour perhaps it becomes boring?

Do any of you feel you are influenced by your current forum skins?

(Hope that's the right terminology!)
