Color Palette Generator

I do a lot of portraits. And I work from a lot of photos. I ALWAYS do a color study and I find that I can save a lot of time working in a limited color palette to work through values. I used to "eyeball" this process, but now I can get some handy help from my computer ( or phone).

Here are a few notable sites with FREE palette generators;

The first from DeGraeve.com ( A FANTASTIC SITE!)

The second is from CSS Drive:

You can then save the palettes as:

 Save as CSS stylesheet (.css file)

 Save as Photoshop swatches (.aco file)
