ColorImpact

ColorImpact is a wonderful color palette generator for a very reasonable price. The program enables you to generate harmonious color mixes for your designs.

It provides you with various color harmonies for your chosen color, so your design will become pleasant to the human eye. You can simply select the color you want from the color wheel, in order to build a new color scheme. After are you done with comparing different color combinations and variations, you can add tints, shades, and tones. Finally, you will be able to export your pallet, and use it on your favorite graphic application.

One of the features I liked of this program, is the ability to import different colors from any image. This function saves a lot of time you may spend in guessing the correct color to use. It also has a color picker tool that can automatically get the hexadecimal value of the color that your mouse points at.

If you are a beginner, and don't really understand the jargon related to color manipulation, you can start by reading the "Basic Color Theory" from the "Learn" section of the program.
