  Hi Anna, thanks! That adobe site is really cool. Smooth interface and I like that you can download the color swatches. Another site that I use is http://colorblender.com. Not as slick of an interface, but you can download the colors as Photoshop color tables or Illustrator colors.

  Funny, colour never gets a look in the CAD world - selection of colours is critical and even the rendering tools aren't geared up for colour selection and evaluation.. Except a few (maybe Hypershot and Showcase)..
  
  Oh - if like me you're into getting your render work as photo-real as possible or like knowing the make up of colours you see (and what to steal) - these things are wicked:

  Its for the print industry, but for a designer, its fantastic colour stealing/checking tool.. you put it on the surface, hit the button, it gives you a read out on the LCD of the pantone reference, but also the RGB and CMYK values. Bit costly, but you might find a used first gen one (which I have) on ebay or something.. Carry it with me in my big old canvas bag of tricks.
