Does anyone know of any references or applications to show a completely color deficient moron some color scheme considerations for sites?
Looking for something that would help a person who can't even match the color of his clothes properly!
Info can include any sites, books, applications, or techniques. Thanks in advance!
Hi, trying not be hard on u....

That reply was great for you maybe, but not so easy for all. I would be interested myself as I have a VERY creative mind but am color blind as a bat!
A simple color wheel with THE NAMES of the colors would be fantastic.
I made a pic of a woman once that was remarkable with the exception that her skin was a shade of green because I didn't have a color name to pic from. PURE SHAME it was.
When you go to styles in Photoshop you get a description popup when you mouse over, why can't we get the same for colors?
