Dynamic Color Swatch Creation

Input form

legal characters
height (default is 128px)
width (default is 128px)

Instructions

This creates CSS-style swatches based on 3-character hexadecimals. It produces all possible combinations based on your input.

To use, specify available characters (A-F and 0-9, no spaces).Image width and height are optional. Mouse over an image to see its 3 digit hex triplet.

Examples:

• enter 0 for black (#000).
• enter FC9630 for all "web-safe" colors
• enter F80 for a nice palate of mathematically average colors
• enter 0123 for an assortment of dark colors, FEDC for light colors
• enter F0 for primary & secondary rgb colors

Note: The number of possible results increases dramatically as you input more legal characters. Entering 0123456789ABCDEF, for example, would give you over four thousand 3-letter hex colors. Don't bother, because loading more than 6 characters throws an error.

What is this?

I built this so that I could easy create a wide variety of background swatches for use in OSX. Read more about it here.
