We have a one story painted brick 70's ranch style house with a neutral beigey brown clay tile roof.It is currently white with yellow shutters. It desperately needs updating, but we are having trouble picking a color scheme. Can someone PLEASE help....:)(Is there a way I can post a pic?)

Go to the local paint stores and pick up the brochures of exterior paint color schemes. Sherwin Williams has several brochures.
