- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12Sometimes I don't understand why people digg down comments like #1.
- shamess, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Most people just... stop reading if they're not interested. They don't continue reading till the point where they pass out because they've made a commitment to read the page.

- mspomer, on 10/12/2007, -9/+13Anyone who designs needs a list like this! Thanks James and "Forty"
- Omega19, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4At first I was like "meh, what's it have that www.tlbox.com doesn't?" Then I actually clicked it, and the answer is about 50 more resourceful links.
Good lookin. - KragTheDigger, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6dugg, because it looks like a good list, and it is better than the average 404 page we usually get from following these links.
~K - bocanegra, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3HUGE lists are useless. We need GOOD lists.
- onkelcommy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Screenalicio.us got more than 8400 CSS designs indexed by colors ex. http://www.screenalicious.com/color/660033/ try clicking a screenshot and select a color from the colorindex to see all sites with this color.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6I wish this was a huge list of off-color related sites.
- fortyjames, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2DNS hiccup. The site just went live recently, so some users might be seeing what it was pointing to previously (one of our old projects). If you flush your DNS and try again, it should work. Sorry about that. Didn't expect it to hit prime time so quickly. :-)
Thanks everyone who dugg this! - stalefries, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Hey, jimmac [1] is colorblind, but that doesn't hold him back from doing all sorts of awesome stuff, like the Tango Project.

- aznmikex215, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Thanks for the list!!
These sites are good for newbie freelancing web designers like myself who are more of a programmer (CIS) then a graphic designer. I know I can technically pull off a site, but I am quickly learning that presentation (Colors, fonts, styles) is everything. - fortyjames, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Added this to the list. Good tip!
- Veign, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Whats Its Color:
http://whatsitscolor.com - deelirium, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I also like the Flickr Colr Pickr: http://www.krazydad.com/colrpickr/
- ozonew4m, on 11/12/2008, -0/+1color charts
http://www.color-chart.org - vukank, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1About 20 days ago a much bigger list was posted here: http://www.elogodesign.com/color-matching-guide/ ;)
- ajames01, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Thanks for linking my web 2.0 gradients (www.euphorish.com)!
- yafd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Also http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/colors.php
- ajames01, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Fortyjames... well, it gets peoples attention :)
- purple, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1http://www.purple.com/
- davidave, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1but the description is "color resources" not "colors"
- resplence, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I feel off my chair laughing with this comment.
- btipling, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Heh. http://color.sharewonders.com/
- gforce42, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1@davidave
We've seen colors beyond our atmosphere. That being said, every color we've seen is by definition part of the "known universe." - fortyjames, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2ajames01: My pleasure. It's a shame about the "Web 2.0" part, but the gradients themselves were very nice!
- fortyjames, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0sweathog -- Are you *sure* it's not on the list?
- fortyjames, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Onkelcommy -- added it to the list. Thanks!
- amp1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Great List For designers and people who love color. I would think shoelovers would get a kick out this site.
http://www.unique-feet.blogspot.com - HoboSapien, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0people tend to poo-poo these things without giving thought to their ass-saving ability when a deadline is tight and you need some inspiration...
just noodling around the site can be all you need sometimes
bookmark'd - mydave, on 07/28/2008, -0/+0For designers this list must be very useful.

good colors... - sweathog, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0one of the best is missing:
http://www.colourlovers.com/ - fortyjames, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Thanks for the tip, deelirium. I've added this to the list.
- rcran, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2I like color ;-)
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1"Color related sites".
See, this is exactly what Im talking about. Reverse site racism. There's no "white" sites, so why does there have to be "colored" sites? We fought long and hard to remove this exact type of segregation long ago (mid 90s). Why cant there just be "sites" and then we can all just get along? - davidave, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2why use a phrase like "known universe" when we all know you're talking about earth?
- Hour13, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0ooo I like that pic2color one
http://www.pic2color.com/pic2color_popup/pic2color_slim.php?img=http://img67.imageshack.us/img67/8085/0afredholdme2qy0.jpg - Lavarock, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1I fell asleep reading this digg.
- paradroid001, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0HUGE ***** i am GIVING
- invader, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2Looks like a pretty extensive resource. I'm definitely going to keep this handy.
- Camaroman, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1This link is teh ghey.
- Ritz, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1I am definitely rejoicing! This is money!!!
- HigherLogic, on 10/12/2007, -9/+5I would think anyone who designs _wouldn't_ need a list like this...besides, this one looks longer:
http://www.elogodesign.com/color-matching-guide/ - Stringfellow, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1What list? All I see is a login page for some podcast thing. No Digg.
