RGBLab 2005

OS: Windows 95/98/Me/NT4.0/2000/XP Status: Freeware Version: 2005 File Size: 1.6 MB Date: 11-15-2003

RGBLab is a unique product and satisfies a simple and basic need. Not only will this freeware program let you pick and mix RGB colours, but it will also let you save RGB colour palettes as text files. As a web designer or developer, you will often find yourself looking for specific RGB colour codes, so you need an easy way to store them. The palettes in the photo editors are not practical for people who just need a simple way to keep track of RGB colour codes. There are some good colour pickers around, but most of them will only let you identify one RGB colour code at a time by pointing at a colour on the screen. A few of these programs will also let you save certain colour settings in some binary file format. In RGBLab, you can save all the RGB colour codes for six different colours in twelve different formats, including a custom format composed by yourself, and you can save all this information in the form of a single text file. Such a text file can later be opened in RGBLab as well as in any text editor. You will have all the different colour codes for HTML, Visual Basic, Access, C++, Delphi, .NET, and Java in one place. NEVER LOOK FOR THAT RGB COLOUR CODE AGAIN!
