Adobe Kuler



Ever found yourself looking for specific color combinations for a photo, website, or design? Adobe Kuler has you covered. Kuler is an Adobe AIR based application that allows you to explore, share and create color themes. Kuler is included and works within all CS4 design applications, allowing you to save themes right into your swatch panel or create and upload them withing an application like Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign - but it's not limited to CS4. You can install the stand alone desktop AIR application and import themes directly into CS3 or simply browse to the kuler website to view the RGB color formulas or download the adobe swatch exchange file. Best of all, it's very easy to use and oh yeah, it's free.

Setup is quick & easy. All downloads are pretty small.

Get started by visiting the Kuler Website. Check out the News & Features and Welcome to Kuler for more info.

If you don't already have an Adobe ID, sign up! It's free.

If you haven't already, download and install Adobe AIR It's free.

Download Kuler Desktop and have fun browsing and creating your own color themes! Did I mention, it's free?

There is also a Kuler Widget for MAC that you can install from the Kuler Desktop application.

Kuler is already an invaluable tool for my design and photography work. It's well worth the 5 minutes it takes to set up... plus, it's FREE!
