Using Adobe Kuler in Your Favorite Apps
| Adobe InDesign Tutorial at Creative COW |
 Article Focus:
Let's face it, not all of us are good at picking contrasting colors, or colors that don't clash, and colors that are not downright ugly mugly. So that's where Kuler comes in, allowing you to, say, based on your corporate logo, a photograph, or a single frame of your movie, provide you with a set of color choices (often called swatches) that can then be applied throughout the project creation process - and across all the applications that you use. |
This simple 4 minute video tutorial will show you how, and it won't cost you a dime! You just need to go to these two websites to follow along with the tut:
* http://lithoglyph.com/mondrianum/ for free plugin
* http://kuler.adobe.com/ for access to color themes.
