A good place to start would be with the specialised colour scheme website by Adobe, called Kuler.
http://kuler.adobe.com/
Kuler is good as it will allow you pick a colour scheme that other people have made, look at it and eventually let you copy the hex values (basically a colours' identity number).
The only problem with this, however, is that I had already made my banner by now, and I didn't want to go changing colours from something that I liked.
This brings me on nicely to another cool feature in Kuler, where you can upload a picture and it will work a colour scheme out for you. This then lets you change the shades of colours using some sort of mathematics to a brighter or darker feel, for example.
Clicking here should send you to the colour scheme that I created by uploading the PNG image of my banner.
Below is also a tutorial video on how to use Kuler and the steps I took to create my colour scheme:
