I put together a 216-color background picker page as a
JavaScript learning experiment, but I find myself using it
all the time so I thought Id share it with the you. It
works with NetScape 3.0 & MSIE 3.0. Steve Nelson

I really like the setup of this site for
comparing/contrasting colors. It lets you play with text
over background, specify link/alink/ and vlink, has hex and
dec equivalents, textures, balloons for the kiddies and
coffee for Mom and Dad... Michael P.

This cgi allows people to easily pick colors off of the
color-wheel
as they are used to in any graphical applications. The server it runs on
isnt the fastest, but the CGI is awesome. Steve Coffman

After months of hassling with the task of trying to find the right
color combos for sites I finally took the time to write a handy little
javascript that has text samples on it of all 216 colors in the web
browser palette. The javascript allows us to switch to any background
color and see how the text samples look on it. It sure saves us a lot
of time and has opened our eyes to new color combos that we hadnt
considered before. Ryan Lee

Andy Stones ColorCoordinator lets the Web page designer instantly
select and preview colors for the background, text, links, active link and
visited links on an HTML page. ColorCoordinator then provides the HTML code
required to use these selected colors. You can choose colors from either
the browser-safe 216 color palette or from a color picker wheel. Andrew Stone
