color codes

[PeterL]

I was looking for a simple tool to help me choose colors for themes, and then get their codes, so i can change them in the appropriate files in SMF.

I found something that works pretty well, called a colorpicker at

Hope you all find it of some use.

It would be nice if SMF had a built in tool that allowed you to see what a paged looked like on-the-fly..

Thanks Owdy.. that's got a different way of doing it.

I've been messing with this all afternoon, trying different color sets, but my biggest problem is learning which code goes with which element on the page.

I'm almost to the point where I'm gonna print out a page and the do trial and error for each code.

And my favorite one is, of course, on MY site.

You also could use my good old YaBB board color helper.

these are awesome tools!

andrea, I loved your editor... it'd be great that you improve it even more with some of the other tools for the SMF version

some of those java ones are handy too, where you just hover over a gradient color box and click the color you want.  that makes it quick and simple, and eliminates a lot of trial and error.
