Earlier this year I mentioned a method for sharing color palettes on a Mac, useful if you have multiple developers working on a project and you need to keep everyone on the same color scheme.
Recently on Twitter someone posted a link to Mondrianum (FREE from Lithoglyph). I’m not a habitual downloader of the latest/greatest, but this was such a simple, elegant and useful tool that I thought I’d share – I think this thing is great.
Essentially it pulls content from the Adobe Kuler online community into the Mac system-wide color picker, making the color themes available in ANY Mac app that uses the system color picker (Which FileMaker does).
Once you’ve installed it, you can select any color theme and either view it online, or add it as a new Apple Color List.
If you add it as a color list, then you’ll have a new Color List in your dropdown menu in your Palette tab, and can start playing around. Download it now, and have fun!
