How about something kinda brightly colored; or a mix of dark and light colors(say one half a dark color and the other half a lighter color) with some flames; like maybe orange and black with some reddish/orangish colored flames on it; or navy blue and yellow with red and orange flames on it or something like that. U could go numerous ways with this one; too numerous to mention....but these are just some possible ideas for ya....good luck in deciding!!

Novakmaxx... I would look thru all the galleries in all the forums that you can find... Ideas a plenty in there... You dont have to copy what you see but you can combine various color schemes you might see with different patterns you find... Its a great way to see what colors you like and how they go together...
