ColorSuckr uses photos to generate color palettes you can use in your artwork and designs. You can choose from one of the photos on the main page, search Flickr, or input the URL of any webpage to find source material.

Once you've got an image, ColorSuckr will give you a draggable selection of colors, complete with hex, web safe and RGB info so you can get them exactly right in your designs. It's a unique way to get a good palette, and especially comes in handy if you're working on a layout that has to match a photo.

Your version and other simplified versions are good for the tech blogger, software seller etc etc, who need to remember all permutations and combinations.
