Black, Red, Electron blue are all good choices. Personally I would go with Red. Electron blue always looked a little weird to me and black requires a lot of attention to keep looking great.

to make an image smaller open it in photoshop, go to the Image menu at the top and click on resize...you can make it whatever percentage of the original you like
