I need a little help please? - GoFuckYourself.com

A year or so ago, someone here sent me a link that would help with contrasting colors. I could type in my background color hit a button and it would show me the contrasting colors for that background color. I am not sure who sent this to me now, but I know it was someone here.... I also know it was a script.

If someone here could help me with either the link or a script that I can get to do this I'd be forever in your debt. This is driving me crazy. lol

For instance, I could type in 000000 and it would show me the contrasting color.... it wasn't a sliding scale thing, it was just this simple, type in the bkg color and it spits out the contrast.

ANYONE know of something like this? I am running out of color schemes here. lol

Use photoshop

Make a color, then CTRL-I inverts it to a contrasting color

Well damn, I think I MORE than earned that right to be called your Bitch, babe...... and if memory serves me, which sometimes it doesn't....... I believe we had a contest or SOMETHING where I was DECLARED your Bitch........... not a title I intend on giving up, I like this one. ;)

I have a HORRIBLE time with colors..... I can match them, but I am pretty limited on my schemes and a fresh idea is always welcome, that's why I liked the one I had....... no matter WHAT color I put in, it gave me a contrasting color that worked with it........

I know what you mean Tam! That's why I kept my last girlfreind. All that color matching just got on my nerves. If it wasn't for her I would wear blue jeans and t shirts all the time. Only women can put together 3 or 4 different colors and make it work.

Oh... you are talking about web design...

same here, i can spend a whole day to find a a good combination of two colors....disturbing!

Tam · 08-25-2002, 12:24 PM

That's how I am Soul....... I spend more time doing the whole color scheme than I do on the entire site combined....... and with that little tool, it was done in minutes and I could knock out way more shit in 1/3 of the time.

Pornwolf....... Oh I can match colors, just takes me half a lifetime...... so I just do the blue jeans and t-shirts myself........ and I am a woman, how pathetic is that? LMAO
