Excellent post, Dominik and thanks for the answer Greg.

Along these lines, I have another question. How can you easily get the "opposite" color for the background color? In other words, how do we get the best contrasting color for a given background color?

That's not quite the same thing. The opposite of red is green, but red on green is unreadable to color-blind people, and red on white or black looks more contrasted to anyone. For text, I'd just take the color's brightness, and use black if it's above 50%, otherwise white. You might want to adjust the threshold depending on which of the two colors is going to be the background.
