Selecting colors and proper application of them is an
essential skill of a good web designer. We know that the colors used in a
website are a major factor affecting the traffic received to that particular
website. A visitor would not mind spending some time viewing a website which is
attractive and not a disturbance to the eyes. If the colors used are not
skillfully combined to comfort the visitors’ eyes, they will tend to leave the
website very quickly, even though that website has a lot of great content. It
is important to remember that you need to present information to the reader in
a readable and a comfortable way.
In this article we are going to discuss about some useful
online resources which helps to generate combined and matched colors easily
that can be used in a website.
This tool allows webmasters to test different color
combinations. Also you can grab the colors from any website.
You can upload any photo you have and generate a color
palette based on the image.
Select your desired color from the wheel and it will
generate the matching colors to use with that particular color. This is useful
if you are designing a website based on a theme color. For example you might
have to design a website for a company which has a green colored logo. Then
obviously you know that the base color should be green. You can select Green
from this color wheel, and it will generate the other matching colors for you.
This tool is useful to generate some random color
combinations. You can spin the wheel and it will randomly select three colors
from nearly sixteen million colors available. Personally I do not recommend
this as a color combination generator because it does not consider the matching
quality of the colors generated.

This is another tool to generate a matching set of colors.
You can get six matching colors including the base color you select.
This is another tool to create color pellet from an image.
You can use this tool to match colors for your website based

6-color matching palette (a "blend") will be automatically
calculated.
