Some time ago either milo or another website had a link to a website where you could find colors that looked nice together. I'm trying to make a tool for a friend of mine which will enable him to find a pallete of nice looking colors. Does anybody know where to find perhaps a routine/source code that does this? thx! |

were you referring to this? http://milov.nl/iambald/97.html ...not really much of an algorithm. picks two random colours and calculates inbetween colour values, with occasional random variation. |

Urhm.. well I have seen that one and I think it's pretty good! But I'm actualy looking for something like: http://www.easyrgb.com/harmonies.php I have been trying to figure out how they did it, but well... maybe someone knows and has the algorithm ready on the shelf... (me being a bit lazy) |

This thread was very interesting indeed. This whole question of what colors look "good" together ... It can be determined mathematically/scientifically, clearly -- but then there is the human/intuitive element! Milov, I like your random-color piece quite a bit; the only problem I have with it is the way the squares flash out at one -- a splashy effect, but hard on the eyes! Also -- if I were going to use it to generate color swatches for a design project, I'd want it to hold still in between sets. |

to get colours that look nice together, you just use a circlepicker, but only change one value- eg same brightness and hue, different saturation, or same brighness and saturation, different hue.
