100/500/1000/5000/25000 which is more standard and would make more efficient use of your chips.
This.
Check homepokertourney.com for some really good stuff on how to set up blinds and how many chips to use.
In casinos the convention of colours is
white 1
red 5
green 25
black 100
purple 500
If you run with standard colours you won't get screwed up when you go to a casino to play. People who come to your game will find it easier to fit in and it will make your game more popular for new players.
100x to 500x big blinds is a good amount to start with.
Why not start by playing cash games with .25/.50 blinds. Use blue chips for .25 and have everyone buy in for $50.
