I found this neato color tool, and I really like the color tester option which lets you see the palette in action.  I always stress over putting sites together for clients, especially when I have to choose colors, but this makes the job a lot easier.

Ooooh ohh ohh ooh

OK, this "pull colors from a picture is wonderful.

How in the world do you have a script tell you if a color is "vibrant" or "dull"?

the one Drastic mentioned is my favorite... but also

Sometimes it's helpful to search this one with the RGB hex code (use palette search, not colour search) if you're looking for a scheme that goes well with a given color (esp. if you're color blind like me and need mechanized and human help)

Given above-mentioend colorblindness, I think the "pull colors from picture" could come in quite useful for me!

as well.

(start playing with the sliders)

But I probably use Color Scheme Designer most.

Ergo - thanks for the tip for colourblindies.  Nice.  I'm CP2 which is seemingly quite bad - not allowed to fly as P-I-C from 1 hour before dusk and 1 hour after dawn.
