Kuler

Hello, I have figured out how to expand the size of the blog, so hopefully videos and pictures wont be cut off too badly anymore! Ive become increasingly interested in experimental social and graphic design technologies. For instance, Twitter, mostly pointless and annoying, but very interesting in the case of QC where web comic characters can now interact in a new medium. The picture below is a screen shot from adobe's new experimental website Kuler. Basically you create 5 panel color themes that people then rate. The themes can also be downloaded for use in adobe creative products. The theme creator is where the technology really shines. Centered on a base color you can pick settings such as complementary and triad to space out your panel dots on a color wheel. You can even use an uploaded photo instead of a color wheel, allowing one to easily choose accent or theme colors when working on a website or making anything in an adobe program. Under each color are the number settings for each type of color profile (CYMK, RGB, etc). While I dont fully understand the true potential of this program, just from the interface alone, I can tell that the users will find millions of new uses for this ingenious site. So go check it out and spend hours playing around untill you find the color sceme that fits you. I know that one day I will use this website to figure out the color scheme of my apartment, a different color for every room, or more likely a different color for each of my four walls.
