Color sharing
I know that there are a billion of online services for creating and collecting color palettes but I really needed something simpler than Kuler or Colourlovers.
Last day I was working with a friend, online, and I needed to show her some colors. I ended up creating and sending via IM a dozen of screenshots only to know if she wanted a darker background for her blog.
If only she could see colors in HEX… After 5 minutes and few lines of ruby I came up with a simple site. Today I added palette view and localStorage support (to store colors in your browser).
The input interface is the address bar, you insert the HEX code as part of the URL. A palette is an address like /ccc/999/666/333. You can access saved colors from the homepage.
I based this little service on the fact that all the info are inside the URL, quick and simple (from a programmer’s point of view).
Do you want to see a rainbow?
