In my last post I discussed about “All in one webmaster 75+ online tools” that can help a webmaster to check the details of the websites. In case if you have missed it then you can check it from by clicking the above link.
Recently, I installed “Atahualpa” theme which allows more than 200 customization to be done on the theme and the best part is that the theme is absolutely free. Later I decided to put some cool colors on the website but it was a real tough task for me (now I understood that it is really tough to design a good website). So I Googled for different online color combination tools and found few great online tools that can really help a webmaster to decide the color combination for his design.
It is not in any particular order:
Colorschemer: Colorschemer is one of the best tools to find the latest color combination. They offer a variety of color combination that suits your need.
Colormixer: One more cool website where you can generate the colors using different color combination. There are three sliders (Red, Green, Blue) and according to the postion of the slider it will create a color combination for you. I really this site particularly, if you are looking for some new and awesome color combination then this website is a must visit for you.
Colourlovers: This offers a latest pallets and patterns to decide the color combination. It has a good collection of patterns. Apart from that you can also create your own pallets, patterns and colors.
Colr: This is somewhat different from above three. Here you will find a real cool color combination which is already there. I recommend you to use “pixie” while using this website. They also shows a pictures and from their you can fetch the colors. Apart from that you can also fetch the colors from different websites. All you need to do is to type the website name and wait the colors to load. 
Colorcombos: Well the name suggests all. It offers latest color combinations to use from. They also offers “combo tester” and “combo library” where you can get almost any color combination.
To design a good website and decide a good color combination requires a good skill (extra ordinary skill) but this online tools has made the job really easy.
Which website do you like the most? Well my favorite is “Colr” as I can fetch the colors from famous websites and pictures.
If you have such website(s) in mind then feel free to share your knowledge here.

Colorcombination is a very good option if you are looking for a cool and new color themes.
Really nice post. I suck in coming up with colour combinations.
And 200+ customisations for a single theme definitely sounds interesting.
@Pallab De
I also suck at color combination, but these websites made my job easy. Hope it will help you in finding good color combination for your website.
Hey Nice theme ya… What is it… I think Atahualpa.? Didnt knew it could even be customised for this right sidebar layout… This layout is very SEO friendly friend…And yes you are putting in a lot of hard work i can see.. Keep it up!
@Neeraj Joshi
Atahualpa is very user friendly theme, customizing is really easy. Thanx for stopping by and also for the encouraging word. I always feel great when somebody appreciate my work this way. Keep rocking
Personally, I believe that color combination is extremely important. I think these handy tools will be a big help to my designing work as well. Can’t help but stumble it! You must have gone through some effort to compile them. Good job, Ricky, I’m impressed!

Ricky, Thanks for getting these together for us. Trying to decide on header, background, borders, what colors would look good together, all while staring at a plain white screen, has been tough, both in my blogs and at work (corporate intranet portal). These sites will be a big help, plus they are just a true pleasure to look at!

A combination of color is a must for a blog. I don’t know if I have the right to change some color with the Ultimate Blogging theme from Carl Ocab, otherwise, I would certainly make some change on the theme to make it looks more attractive.
.-= Benjamin Cip´s last blog ..Special Discount Of The Week! =-.
@Benjamin Cip
Yes the color combination says how serious you are as a blogger. I guess you can change the color of your theme. Theme designer won’t mind changes as long as you are not removing their links. All they need is credit given to them, which is quite fair. BTW thank you for stopping by.
I bought the most expansibe version of the Ultimate Blogging Theme allowing me to remove the Theme designer name in the footer. I just don’t know how to make some change in my theme. By the way, I’m running a $20 Logo Design Contest on my blog… maybe you’d be interested to participate or helping me to choose the right logo for my blog?

@FreeTechjournal
Saurabh bro, nice to see you here. Did you get the new domain name?
I guess the best offline tool to find hex code is ‘pixie’. But sometime you won’t get much idea about color combinations, for that you must go for online tools. I guess this tools will come in handy especially if someone is noob at color combination. BTW thank you for commenting here.
@ Ricky, ya pixie is indeed good but if you want to know what color a particular hex code represents & want to create your own color.. Hex color finder meets this requirement..
Yes bro, I got a new domain, It’s high time I started tech blogging..
Yeah, I had a few problems picking the right colors for my blog, but luckily for me my theme makes changing the colors etc pretty easy.

I used to pick color scheme on Photoshop before but my version is old and it’s not functioning well on latest Windows. Now I’m using Xara cos I can also pick the colors from any website. But if I have to try one from your list, I’d choose colormixer.
.-= Marlene´s last blog ..Men In The Tube =-.

Hey thank you for stopping by. Xara is a good tool, there are many offline tools available for choosing the right color scheme. Colormixer is really good but I would suggest you to go for color
