Choosing Complimentary Colors for your Blog - ColorMatch Tool
Have you ever struggled to select a color scheme for a blog? It’s pretty obviously looking at the disaster that I’ve designed here that I do!
So this ColorMatch tool is going to be very handy!
It is designed to help you select a 6 color palette for your blog. All you have to do is select a main color that you like using the slider and it will do the rest and come up with 5 complimentary colors. What could be easier?
Update: Michael from Figby has just posted a comprehensive list of these sorts of color matching tools for the design impaired. There are 14 in total - quality stuff!

(I have about 20 different color tools bookmarked, I think I’ll do a weblog post that links to all of them.)

Thanks for this information about color matching! … I am color-blind somewhat, and this helps immensely. Best wishes …
