My current task is picking a pallete. I sometimes play with a color wheel for colors and then dip into a different tool to develop variations. The web site I used to use to help me with this seems to have hidden itself behind a paywall much to high to warrant my climbing it for literally one palette. After some googling I have come up with a coupel of new sites that should do the job for me. This post is to share those sites and document them for my future use.
Before delving into the tools, a moment for my opening color thoughts. There are a few things I want to achieve with my book colors:
- Change from recent Barrett Photo Books
- Logical connection to trip
- Light colored page backgrounds
- High contrast color band (sometimes more than one)
- Dark text color for use on background color
- Light text color for use on color band
