The Photoshop Plug-In We Gave Away This Time

 
HVC Color Composer
Photoshop Plug-In from MasterColors

The HVC Color Composer plug-in to Adobe Photoshop presents a unique perceptual HVC hue, value, and chroma colour space which is a natural, intuitive way for artists and designers to use colour. Simply start with one or more base project colours, enter your desired palette settings and the HVC Color Composer will automatically generate palettes that work perfectly with those colours. Color Composer offers fully dynamic control over Depth and Contrast settings for generated palettes.

HVC Color Composer is an enhanced version of Photoshop¹s own Color Picker, allowing you to switch between the enhanced colour picker and the basic colour picker at any time through Photoshop¹s preferences. HVC Color Composer has all of the features as the Photoshop colour picker and in the same basic layout so it will be completely familiar to any Photoshop user.

Color Composer lets you easily narrow or widen the palette results dynamically to generate as many or as few complementary colours as you desire. The plug-in ends the tedious and sometimes seemingly impossible task of creating colour combinations that work well together. The palettes that are generated are unique, vibrant, interesting arrays of colour that users would not be able to find using any other methods, not even by endlessly flipping through professional design swatch or palette books. Yet the palettes have actual significance to a designer’s current project specifications. The palettes can be saved into Photoshop Swatch format files and then opened in the Swatch palette for easy and convenient use. This allows designers to work in an intuitive way where they can focus on the work in progress. HVC Color Composer Professional insures that everyone can intuitively create unlimited, powerful, interesting colour compositions with amazing speed.

For Photoshop CS, CS2, and CS3
