    At the moment there are two colour pickers on CodeProject article list. In addition to that, there is already a number of those things in archives, based on a different commercial programs, technologies implemented and personal preferencies. Beside a chance to work with funny colours, what's the reason for people to constantly turn back to the problems already solved? I am not trying to diminish anybodies work, but those things are just an old story, pointless school exercise. Cheers, Dejan Petrovic

        True, there are flavours of colour pickers, but in the end it's just a single task (selecting a colour)and it's needed rarely. Unless you are working with some kind of a drawing programme, it's unlikely you'll ever need sofisticated standalone colour picker. And on a broader scale, number of articles about derived controls is exceeding their usage. There is nothing wrong with that, just showing how 'visual' creatures we are - and how much we love playing with toys. Cheers, Dejan Petrovic
