Finally figured out how to do this! Granted, you have to spend money, but it wasn't much and for me, it is totally worth it.

I have my old shopping color guide by Pantone called House & Garden. You know, one of those fan type color thingies.

Anyway, now that we can make fabric (soon) I really wanted to convert this to RGB Hex, etc. So I can get the colors close.

So pantone has this free program called myPantone. You can't just type your pantone color in, though, you have to purchase a library of pantone colors to add to it. Since mine was old, the new name was fashion + home. It was twenty bucks. But now I can search by pantone colors and hex colors and rgb and find out which is what. Now, I can get colors back and forth!!!!

Okay, you guys are all super smart and probably already knew that, or have way more awesome programs, but just in case, I am posting this.

oh, and just to add, I am not a huge fan of pantone. There palette thing really sucks. So I am totally not suggesting anyone hang out there. I just don't know of another way to get "real" colors on the computer.

My sincerest apologies for not posting this in the proper place but the "bugs" thread is not letting me post.

For some reason a whole heap of stuff doesn't seem to be working properly. Noone's palettes/patterns are showing up on their profiles, just the bio and recent comments, I can't edit anything and none of the drop down menus are working.

Is this happening to anyone else or is it just me?

I just love this. The peachy colours look so calming and serene and then there's the grey and the turquoise which gives off a 50's feel (which I just love on its own). It's a perfect colour palette for this summer.

Contrary to the cliché, not all artists are solitary creatures. With Tagtool Touch, collaborative creation is the name of the game - it's easy to hook up several iPads over Wifi to paint in the same projection.

Tagtool Touch is ingenious entertainment for visual people. It's an educational activity that helps break down social barriers. Above all, it's a serious artistic instrument, for inspired and authentic visuals.
