Painting My Bike: Give me your design! (colors provided, kinda)

edited January 2008 in creations
I am planning on painting my bike and need design recommendations. Color wise I'm thinking a mix of earthy greens, browns and oranges with some warm cream/ivory mixed in as well - something with a very retro feel. What I don't have is the design/layout of the colors. i.e. what color to do the fenders, how to do the colors on the frame, fork, lugs, and so on. Any suggestions would be appreciated as I've never really been one to come up with designs.

Here she is in her current state:

    uhhhh... is the top tube lowered so that you don't get your hoop skirt tangled up on the dismount, Shep?

    Why are you tooling around on a girls bike?

    I really like the look of women's bike frames, much sleeker.

    keep it black, and do some cream detailing - the flat surfaces around the lugs and stuff, for example. remove the stickers.

    do some fancy pinstripping on the front and rear edges of the fenders, too. something quite ornate.

    it's exactly the oposite!
    a man's bike should have this frame! (have you hit your balls against the "man's" top tube? if you use this kind of frame that will (hopefully) never happen :) )

    colour recommendations:
    paint the frame yellow
    leave the fenders and the rest black, but maybe repainting and polishing?

    He must be adjusting his cup, real lowrider gangsters do not ride with dropped top tubes.
