Abstract :
Color is one of the basic building blocks of image creation, yet many computer-based methods for selecting and working with colors remain unchanged from the time of their invention two decades ago. Although some advanced color tools are available for specific tasks, such as color correction, virtually none exist to help users select a set of colors and work with them effectively. The author´s tool set extends graphics applications ability to mix and organize colors; explore color combinations; and solicit historical, theoretical, or expert sources.
