Color Scheming With Pictaculous

Pictaculous (from the folks at MailChimp ) has to be the quickest and easiest way to grab a color scheme or palette from an image. Simply head to the Pictaculous site, upload your image (PNG, JPG or GIF, up to 500k) using the form and wait a few moments for it to be processed. Pictaculous breaks the image down into a four-color palette, together with suggested color schemes from both Kuler and ColourLovers .
