What about something like a deep, rich plum, accented with green http://www.colourlovers.com/palette/111832/A_Nostalgic_Drunk
Isn't that what Ubuntu went for recently?
or if you want to be brave, maybe something headache-inducing :)) http://www.colourlovers.com/palette/53440/a_s_p_i_r_i_n or maybe not :)
Colourlovers.com is a great place to play with palettes.
What sort of atmosphere do people want? Fresh, clean and light seems to be very 'in'. Almost like 60s/70s but without the brown.
I LOVE the sixties and a happy flower theme would tickle me in funny places :D

That's actually cool stuff Jos. I like the warm colors that appear in the palettes as well as some of the images. One thing to be careful with is how to implement some of these ideas. If you notice, most of the images have a combination of circles and letters and while the match very well, they could end up becoming busy on the eyes. If we go for one color palette from the one you showed, I wold go for the colors that have pastel shades on it. The others are probably too much for the eyes. Pastel shades are easier on the eyes.
