Anyone have a better color picker?

Most color pickers out there (Such as the API demo, CWAC-Colormixer, and other freebies) just let you pick a color and offer few or no supporting features, such as

  • History of previously chosen colors
  • HEX display of color selected.
  • Palette of common color constants (white, black, blue, red, etc.)

I could develop these myself, but thought I'd ask first if someone already knows of any existing color picking dialogs with advanced features?

Solution

  • This may not cover every feature mentioned, but definitely hits many I did not: Keith's UberColorPicker is chalk full of features and far more powerful than the API demo or any other open source color picker I've seen.

    EDIT: Word of warning though, it does not use layouts and can be a bear to adapt.
