I made a little flash file where you can change the color of the wall and
see the posters on that color. You can also choose between the various
preset poster colors or even pick a color of your own choice.

You can also share your findings, so if you want to show off how the posters
would look on your wall, or want to suggest a color for the posters that you
think look awsome, simply copy the url generated at the bottom and post
here.
Sorry for the very buggy color picker. I found it on the net and it was even
worse before I fixed a few (other) major issues it had. If anyone have been
able to find a free one that's better, please let me know. All the well
tested ones seem to cost money.

Been playing with it for a bit and I must say that the only color that works
well on almost any wall color, in my view that is, is khaki. Even if you
had an of-khaki wall it works. White also works well because it's a neutral
color but it's not as forgiving. Other colors are far more picky. The dark
colors, black and brown, are just out of the question.
All this is obviously just my opinion.
And as an aside, I'm very pleasantly surprised by the lengths you go to get
a good end result. One doesn't see that nearly enough. :)

Well, the metal reflects both yellow and blue reflections, which
incidentally might explain the overwhelming support for both kakhi and blue
backgrounds, so I thought a light green could work. Something like
http://runevision.com/3d/metalandflowers/?wall=FFFFFF&poster=CBD4CB&frames=true
IMO, it sets off the red in the stems, which in turn make the red of the
flowers really stand out.
I also tried a non-uniform background, based on white and the blue
reflection #c8c8d3. Maybe a tad obvious. :-p

I'm really surprised how a color so close to light gray actually sets off
the metal so nicely rather than blending in with it. It works very well, I
agree.

??? I think orange is a good choice. Try <255, 150, 65>
Your khaki is greenish for my tastes. I prefer warmer, lighter <215,
205, 160>
Adjustment to your desaturated blue and teal backgrounds would "eat"
your flowers less <71, 112, 178> <71, 178, 155>

Light blue doesn't look to bad.

Ok:

I have to say that I think the flowers look flat and uninspired on the
orange background.

Hmm, personally I like the green tint in the khaki, as it creates slightly
more contrast with the flowers.

Hmm, I think we generally have different tastes in color. :)
(Or your screen is much darker than mine!)

Being so close to the color of the metal, and more saturated too, it
flickers rather much in my eyes. :/

And goals. I don't care for any of the cools with your neutral red and
warm stamens. IMO, anything even leaning towards Vermillion looks best
with at least as warm as a slightly cool yellow. Red recedes against
cool, deep colors, which is why I desaturated and/or lightened your blue
and teal.
Orange pulls the stamens out of the flowers, IMO.
Nice image whichever you choose. Looking forward to seeing photos of the
finished project.
