This little tool will allow you to choose RGB, HSL, and CMYK colors. Contains controls that look and operate like color picker controls used in adobe photoshop. What are these color formats?For those of you who know what these are, you can probably skip this section. A color can be represented in many different ways, one of the most popular being RGB or Red Green Blue. Normally each RGB value is stored (in the case of a 24-bit bitmap) from 0 - 255, which allows you to have a maximum of over 16 million colors.For a programmer this is just fine, but for most artists there are better ways to display a color graph. For the artists you'll usually find some type of HSL (Hue, Saturation, and Luminance) representation. This is also sometimes referred to HSB (B for Brightness). Hue represents all 360 degrees of the color wheel, saturation represents how much color is shown, and Luminance describes how dark the color is. This combination of values allows you to easily find those in-between colors (like red-orange or whatever) and then adjust how bright or colorful they are.CMYK values, which is short for cyan / magenta / yellow / black, are used more in printing applications, where balancing how much ink is used for a project is very important.
