There are many things about the traditional color wheel that are misleading. Please consider showing the CMYk and RGB wheels as well.

Personally it doesn't matter whether it's a RGB or CMYK color wheel. Cos once I understand the color relationship and color schemes, I'd pick the colors from the software I'm working in, eg Adobe Illustrator, and it'll tell me it's color mixture.
To me color is part science, part art.
Science - wherever there’s light, there’s color. White light contains all visible colors, which form an infinite spectrum that appears in the red-to-violent sequence, like a rainbow.
Art - with a tool like a color wheel, one would be able to choose the various shades and tints from the different color schemes such as complement and monochromatic.
This short article demystifies color and help one find the perfect colors for not only websites, but whatever that requires the use of colors. :)
Hope it helps.
Cheers!

@shepherdog
Your article just gives color wheel basics, there's nothing there about finding perfect colors etc?

Hi All
I saw an Expression Design tutorial video, where the guy had a color wheel image on his design surface, and overlayed masking shapes to allow the selection of complimentary colors.
Does anyone know where I can get these for Expression Design ?
They looked really usefull
Thanks
Dean
