Top 5 Colour Resources for Web Design  -  April 24, 2008

Colour harmony is very important in web design. Good colour combinations can by itself grab visitors attention and boost your conversion rates. Web site colours should also be used to convey your company’s statement or communicate to your target audience.

Achieving pleasant colour schemes is not always easy, however I have a set of web based tools which give me a helping hand.

Adobe Kuler – This great tool from Adobe labs enables you to create harmonious colours online with a few minutes. You can also browse the huge database of colour palettes made by the community.

Colour Lovers – You can find ideas for cutting edge designs using colour lovers, with thousands of colours palettes, single colours and background pattern to choose from.

wear palettes – A collection of over 1500 colour palettes inspired by the clothes featured in the fashion blog Sartorialist.

Tartan Maker – A “new trendsetting online application for cool designers”. Excellent for creating tartan backgrounds.

Stripe Generator - A tool for web designers who want to generate web 2.0 stripes. Set the spacing, colors, size, background and orientation, and then download your stripes to use wherever you want.
