I recall that red was the color most likely to get attention, and thus recommended for calls to action. Any reason not to use red ?

Yeah, it depends on the scenario, green is like a very peaceful-ish color, red is like something to relate with urgency (In a negative way). Red in real life means danger, stop, error..etc.

I wanted to recommend red too initially, but I think for his use case blue or green would go well because of the background image (and also for the reasons above).

It depends on a lot of variables. Best to A/B test which color works best with this specific design/audiance.

This guy does a nice job explaining how sometimes it's not so much the color, but how you use it. "What stands out gets clicked, what blends in gets ignored."

Red is associated with "error" state.

Orange.

If it's good enough for carrots and William the Silent, it's good enough for me!
