Well, there's two color schemes I hate (hate is a strong word, more like dislike sweatdrop) Bubblegum is one - basically any of the color schemes that's got bright/sky blue and pink, but bubblegum is the best example. It hurts my eyes. But I do like the ones that use a pale blue or teal color with pink. Those are super cute 3nodding It's just the ones with bright blue/pink that bother me.
I also hate festive, but that's only because the majority of items that use umber red are festive, and I don't want the green emotion_bigvein
Speaking of~~ I really love umber red, and I wish more/nicer items would use it. So if I were to make a color scheme, it would be - Umber red, Ivory, Offblack, Vintage gold. Maybe a little brown, kind of like the Librarian color scheme, but Umber instead of Crimson.
I know there are a couple color schemes close to that, but 1: they use cream or pale yellows instead of white, and I prefer ivory/offwhite, 2: they also have other shades of red in them, and I just want umber, and 3: even the color schemes that do use umber without any green are only on, like, 3 items. I just want more~!
I agree and I also feel that bubblegum is an overused scheme by a lot of avi creators. That and just amaranth. Festive is very specific! Like patriotic, they are so holiday oriented.
Like antique perhaps?
Ah yes, you are right, no pure white in that. It would be pretty with offwhite, white. Hehe the cry of us all, we want more of what we want!!

For scheme's I don't like? I'd have to say, right off the bat, that would be Demure and Booming.
For Demure, the colors are just too washed out and muted for me. What's with that gross, dull green? That mucky brown? And I looooooove pink, but honey that ain't it lol. It's just so dull and unsaturated!! Blooming is a million times better! And yet, somehow, this scheme is in my inventory anyway hehehe. x'DD
Booming is just this clashing mix of neon colors that just don't look good together. It's definitely the dark mint that kills it. If it was some other color, or heck if you just removed the dark mint altogether, it would have worked. But as it is right now, it doesn't.
On a closer inspection, I realize that I also dislike Wonderfun, Jolly and Popcorn.
In all these schemes, the colors are either clashing or don't mix well. Wonderfun's bright blue, yellow and red look disastrous together. Jolly is the best of the worst, but that doesn't excuse the red for being so jarringly out of place. Popcorn's poppy orange is nauseating with those other colors, but this would have been okay if not for the black.
And I will come and edit this post with the schemes I would make, a bit later. It's dinner time now hehe~ heart
I'm back! And ready to answer the second question! I would make these two schemes:
The first one would consist of the colors Solar orange, Bubblegum pink, and Ivory with Gold accents. The second one would consist of the colors Solar orange, Moluccella and Ivory.
Id say the most overdone scheme is probably demure its insane! there so SO MANY items in those colors. I like imperious more than booming for sure.
(I have to agree, those orange and red and butter ones never did it for me, I dont think Ive made an avi in them once.) I think its the orange that kills it for me in popcorn.
Your color scheme orange is so pretty!! And I love moluccella anywhere. Im not the biggest fan of cutie pie, but if the color with the pink was more gold than yellow that would be pretty.
When it comes to dislikes I can't recall specific scheme names, but I'm not a fan of schemes that consist only of very muted grays or blues. I just know I see stuff in them floating around the MP and my immediate reaction is "pass".
If I could make a scheme it would be CMYK except every item utilizes color blocking rather than gradients.
Yess like the denim ones look so washed out like a grey/blue.
How awesome! Maybe like how respectrum is?

Wow, that's quite the orange. I don't think I've seen that orange on gaia, before--I am always in favor of more orange.
I know! Isn't it?! I love it soooooo much, oh my gosh!!! I want all the oranges for Gaia, especially more orange hair! I discovered it originally from someone else's avatar wearing one of the hairs and realized I needed so much more of it.
Unfortunately, there are very few items that feature solar orange. Two hairs, one lip color and four regular items are the only things I can find in the marketplace that feature it at all. Interestingly enough, it seems to be apart of a color scheme that doesn't appear to be named. I'm personally not a fan of the scheme, as I don't like the dark maroons and black colors with the vibrant orange, but it's intriguing that hardly anyone knows it exists.
Here are all the items with solar orange, in case you're interested!
*goes and checks/ buys the scheme. Cries at the prices of the hair and adds to WL Thank you!

Hey, thank you. Apparently I own some of those items from the bundle. I guess I just never caught on that the orange was a different one. Isn't it funny how colors can look different when used in different combinations?
(For DawnLuna) The scheme items seem to all come from a usermade bundle by The Golden Boleyn, and have the tag "irreplaceable" Though, true to gaia form, the green in the some of the items is not listed in the tags, and searching "irreplaceable " also brings up an item that has nothing to do with the scheme I was looking all over for a bundle and of course, unlisted. I do have one item though, the cheapest lol.
Thank you!! Gonna add it to the list to add (hehe add to add)

Yeah, antique is also really pretty, but like I said, I wish it was just umber instead of mixing it with crimson, and the cream color isn't really my style. Plus, antique has a similar problem of not having many good items, or even really that many items at all.
DawnLuna
I agree and I also feel that bubblegum is an overused scheme by a lot of avi creators. That and just amaranth.
...I...I have a lot of avis that use just amaranth and white...redface

You are right about the antique, I realized it after I looked at it.
