    I'd go with oatmeal or off-white.

    As you can tell from Matt's article, opinions are all over the map.

    Matt,

    A splendid article which leaves no stone unturned. Thank you for it, and thank you also for 'the mention' - very generous of you. However, just one point: the name is Bicknell, not Birknell !!

    Thanks Matt...I'm less baffled now. Also appreciated the mention of flash suggestions.
