Yesterday I ran across a tool built into OS X that can give you the RGB values for just about anything on a web page. This is very useful for "borrowing" color ideas from other sites.
In the Utilities folder, just launch DigitalColor Meter. Your mouse becomes a color browser. Simply mouse over the image, background, or other visual element and behold, the color value is displayed for you. There are a number of formats to choose from. Since I do a lot of HTML work, the 8-bit HEX is my personal favorite.
If anyone else knows of similar tools for Windows or Linux, please post a comment. Because being able to do this is freaking great!
