Hmmm... ok now I am really confused, the two people I was hoping would post in here did, BM Bradley and Dean Capture... two guys who's work I rate real high. But here's my problem...
You kind of contradicted each other

Whilst Dean Capture says "In my opinion, medium-to-dark blues & greens work best for backgrounds"
So unless I am reading it wrong one is saying no blues or greens, the other is saying blues and greens ahhhhhhhhhh !
Also another problem I see is this... we shoot mainly teenie girl next door stuff, so I am not sure dark blue and dark green walls work... I would of thought pinks... but I agree when even I shot against a pink wall it aint come out great...
Sounds as though I am royally fucked
