Help for the color blind designer

This came through on the RSS feeds today.. very cool little helper for picking out color combos for your designs - the bonus - each one submitted is voted on, so you can see if people like it or hate it! The big bonus is the Mondrianum plug-in that works with you apps on your Mac! So easy..

Adobe® kuler is an online community where you can explore and find great color themes. kuler’s color themes are contributed by its users, many of them designers or in the creative business. You can share with the community your own chromatic ingenuity, too.

Lithoglyph’s Mondrianum is a powerful plug-in that enables Mac applications to leverage the resources of the kuler community. Once installed, Mondrianum acts like a built-in, system-wide color picker, available in any Mac application that supports this feature of Mac OS X. Apple’s own iWork™ and iLife® suites, Google Sketchup™, and renowned applications like Coda, CSSEdit, and many more, all work well with Mondrianum.

Mondrianum combines the best of the kuler community and the nativeness of Mac applications. If you work with colors on a Mac, be sure to check it out!
