{ Adobe Kuler }

Number three on my Top Ten List for Designer Resources on the Web is Adobe Kuler. Adobe Kuler is an Internet application that lets you create individual color schemes with various colors. Much like any color wheel Adobe Kuler has the possibility to create thousands of color combinations. Adobe Kuler is a easy website to pick up. One of the best features on Adobe Kuler is the ability to create a color scheme from any photograph. All you have to do is upload an image on the website and it will find five colors that it believes look good with each other. Once you have created a color scheme that you enjoy you then can save that scheme and it will be kept in your color themes. Since this website is created by Adobe it's a reliable color source. I would suggest Adobe Kuler to anyone who loves mixing colors and creating color schemes to use in designs.

Below I have shared the link to Adobe Kuler, along with some photos from Adobe Kuler that may help you better understand Adobe Kuler and what it has to offer.

This is what the homepage for Adobe Kuler looks like. Here you can pick from what kind of color scheme your looking for. For example this photo is showing an Analogous color scheme. You have the option to change the colors the wheel had selected. If you like the color scheme you can then save it into your color themes.



 This is what the explore page looks like. It shows you the most popular color scheme, or even random schemes. If you find one you like you can then save it into your themes. 



This is what happens when you upload your own images. It tries to find a color scheme from your image. You can pick the color mood you want Adobe Kuler to pick up on, for example this one is showing a colorful color mood. Once you have a color scheme that you like you 
can save it into your themes. 


Happy Coloring!!!
