I recall that red was the color most likely to get attention, and thus recommended for calls to action. Any reason not to use red ?

- Strom 14y agoIt depends on a lot of variables. Best to A/B test which color works best with this specific design/audiance.
- taude 14y agoRed is associated with "error" state.
- neya 14y agoYeah, it depends on the scenario, green is like a very peaceful-ish color, red is like something to relate with urgency (In a negative way). Red in real life means danger, stop, error..etc. I wanted to recommend red too initially, but I think for his use case blue or green would go well because of the background image (and also for the reasons above).
