66. I like the set up, but the colors are identical

to the Bank of America corporate colors. Instead of doing the red/blue thing, could you go with some other combo, or make the red more orange or more purple? When Bank of America switched all of their signs to mostly red rather than mostly blue, it actually corresponded to their corporate headquarters moving from San Francisco to North Carolina......

So, I don't want to see that color of red here, it has too much baggage with it. But it is a good idea to have color contrasts.
