My wife and I just bought a home that needs some updating. We want to put in bamboo flooring in the living/dining area but the walls of the living room are solid wood paneling. We don't want to change the paneling but are struggling with what color bamboo will look the best. I did some photo shop testing with a natural color and dark spice. Any opinions on these colors or thoughts on others would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I don't like either color. Have you looked at a stained bamboo? I'd maybe do a cherry stained one or an espresso.

Here's a cherry like stained long plank bamboo floor on this page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/13772863@N ... hotostream

Here's a few different colors mid page:

Many people dont know this but they do make unfinished bamboo, I've installed it a couple times. You can make it any shade you want.
