Anyone Know A Link To A Good Colour (Color) Picker Script

I am spending a good hour or so looking myself, but it is always good if anyone can also recommend - it helps when I compare.

 

It's for a sports kit colour picker tool.

 

User selects the 2 colours that make up the team kit.

 

I.e in football (soccer) the two colours would be shirt and shorts colours.

 

I think it would be good to select from a range of colours, then just store the #FFFFFF id (whatever this is) - which can then be recalled later.

 

Also, ideally I would need to be able to check if someone chooses colours too similar.

 

The reson is that in some places I will display the two colours together. Colour 1 = is the text on top of colour 2 - so if someone chooses white and yellow then this is not good.

 

I did have a script where it checks if certain values in the #FFFFFF conflict - ie if first two letters are the same or close to each other in both colours, then error etc. - but I have misplaced the script.

 

I am prepared to spend a good few hours doing this, and any help would be great. Thanks.

 

Ideally understanding the #FFFFFF - I remember that you can tell by the letters how you can check if the colours are likely to be similar - I am sure somebody knows what I am on about.

Thanks. I now have quite a few that seem to do a good job.

 

I think the key thing is a script that will prevent any contrasting colours, as I need the user to select 2 colours, one being the background, and one being the text.

 

If they choose blue on white, no problem, but any shade of red on another shade of red = problem.

 

I am sure there is a way of using the letters/numbers to check this.
