Need a color palette? Got an image? Try this generator

There are a lot of ways to come up with a color palette. You can search through collections of them on a site like Adobe Kuler, you can put them together from scratch, or you can borrow someone else's. What if you want something easy and unique? Try CSS Drive's Colors Palette Generator. It takes any image and creates a selection of palettes full of colors that are sure to work well together.

When you upload your image or enter an image URL, the generator will give you three sets of seven colors each. It offers light, medium and dark palettes, so you can choose the one that's best suited to your task. If you need more to work with, it also offers a full palette, containing 49 colors. When you find something you like, you can export the results as a css stylesheet or Photoshop swatches for convenient use in your projects.
