I really like this app.... makes it easy to grab color palettes from paintings (mine or not) and use them for new projects :)

Cool. Thanks for the tip.

Just if you're using it for ArtRage (desktop for sure and maybe for other devices which I don't have to confirm it's written into those platforms), you have the option to import any pic, photo or art, in most standard formats = jpegs etc) and use that image you import to pick colors from. The pictures, simple or complex, become your palette. Plus it's cool to dip your brush into a pic you like, like a painting by Whistler or some calendar photo for colors. The only caveat is that the colors are starter colors. You will probably want to do some blending to get a fuller range. So you still have to be thinking like an artist.

But when digital, the world of pictures is ripe for the picking.
