XP: Help picking exterior paint color
Hi Guys,
I know this may not be the right board, but you all have some great ideas so I'm hoping you may be able to help me. We recently bought a new house and are getting a new roof and gutters and we will also be painting the exterior of the house at the same time. We finally decided on the shingle color, but we're undecided on what color would look good for the rest of the house. The shingle color we picked is called Autumn Brown, and is a warm brown color (pic below). We are also planning on keeping the trim and gutters white, but I'm lost on what would look good for the main color of the house. I'm thinking something in a warm tone would look best but I would love some suggestions. For what it's worth DH says he doesn't care what color we paint it (he rarely has an opinion on home decorating stuff) and is leaving the decision up to me. We also have no HOA or restrictions on paint color. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Re: XP: Help picking exterior paint color
You can also post this on Decorating and Renovating. But, they will probably want a house pic too.
What color are your neighbors' homes since you probably don't want to be matchy-matchy with them?
OK, it won't let me add the photo, but here's an attachment! Just kidding, it won't let me attach it either, so you can see our house at the link below. http://tinypic.com/r/140bs7l/5
