Should the side of the door be the same colour as the outside (probably blue) or the inside (probably white)?
I aways thought you went with the inside / white for the edges. But then that's just based on helping my dad to paint my folks door over the years and may have just been laziness... Or even the logistics of leaving it open to dry for that long without getting robbed.

This is the inside of my recently-fitted front door. I couldn't paint it before it was hanged, for various reasons (some legitimate and some spurious and covering for my laziness).
My questions about painting it now:
Should I take all the paint off, or as close to as practicable, or just sand it until there's a good surface paint it again?
Should the side of the door be the same colour as the outside (probably blue) or the inside (probably white)?
We're going to get new sidelights and transom windows as well. Has anyone seen this woodwork painted anything other than white, and would it look good?
