Visibone Webmaster Color Lab

Anyone with a web site has struggled with color choice: what colors will render well in most browsers? Which colors look good together? The Visibone Color Lab helps you answer those questions. Click a choice on the color wheel, and then click another. It shows you the two colors side-by-side, and includes the hex codes you need to duplicate your choices on your own pages. A very useful tool for amateurs and pros alike.
