Useful Sites for Colors and Color matching

Gern44 · 12-17-2013, 10:32 AM

Here's some links I often use in Logo and Jersey design for colors. I think I've posted a couple of these awhile ago, but I still find them very useful.

A Link to team Colors:
Baseball Team Colors
^ Colorwerx has some really nice stuff, if you poke around a bit.

A Link to a very nice color scheme matching site:
Color Schemes and Color Palettes - Combo Library

Another Color Scheme matching tool:
Color Scheme Designer 3

Some very useful colors and their HEX codes (great for Photoshop and such):
Hex Color Codes

Nice Gern, thanks for sharing! Wish I had more time to utilize these...silly real life keeps getting in the way.

I also suggest you use a color picker which lets you copy the hex code of whatever the cursor is pointing at to the clipboard. Incredibly useful, especially if you're referring to the Colorwerx pages.

Nattyware's Pixie is the one I use.

Color Cop is my fav.

Both those look great. Unfortunately, Im limited to web utilities at work, as we are blocked from installing any unapproved software.

I don't know how they expect you to get anything done.

Where is the best place for high resolution logos? Colorwerx used to have them, but for some reason no longer do.

As far as I know, there is no other site with high-res logos.

Chris Creamers sportslogos.net although not high-res is the most complete out there and many of the older logos are being updated with what seems to be Colorwerx logos (colorwise at least).

Do you know why colorwerx removed all of their high-res logos?
