tiza126 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I've been struggling to come up with color inspiration for today's challenge, so I'm letting the internet do the job for me! Here's what you need to do for today's challenge: 1) Visit http://www.colorsontheweb.com/colorwheel.asp 2) Scroll down until you find the "Spin the Color Wheel" Button. Press it. 3) Use those three colors as your layout challenge. When you finish your layout, post it to the Saturday Color Challenge Gallery. Have fun, good luck, and may the Color Force be with you.

Nica Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Cool! I had to play for a bit, just clicking to see what the spinner would generate. There's definitely some weird combinations! I closed and reopened, to reset everything, and this is the palette that I got for the challenge:. It may need some tweaking, but I'll give it a whirl.

How did you manage to get a copy of the color wheel results? I tried to copy it, to no avail. Then I tried to print the whole page. Got everything but the color palette.

alsoarty Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Oh and you can just use a screen shot of the swatches alone - by clicking command+shift+4 your curser will change to a crass hair - and then you just drag it over the part you want to copy. Also below each color are numbers. You can enter those numbers in your swatch palette and the color will show up. Hope this helps someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnBK Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 How do I put my swatch here? I've tried copy paste everything. The only way I could figure out how to do it was to post it on the web somewhere and use the web address to upload it. There must be an easier way. And thanks for the neat keystroke tip....just had to try it out and it works perfectly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
