ColoRotate Now Available as a CS4 Plugin

In June of last year, I wrote a blog about "Useful Tools for Choosing Your Color Palette". One of the sites I wrote about was ColoRotate. Well I received an email from Michael Douma of ColoRotate who wanted me to know that they are now out of the beta testing phase and now have a working Photoshop CS4 Plugin.

Michael stated, my colleagues and I developed ColoRotate because, while color is inherently three-dimensional, all color pickers were flat. From the feedback we received during beta testing, it seems that those who engage in computer color selection and design also felt that vacuum. They found some features of ColoRotate especially appealing, such as gaining more control over foreground and background colors through fine-tuning with sliders, and easily creating meaningful palettes.

The plugin is available at http://plugin.colorotate.org/ for ($39) -- Plugin users can also subscribe to the ColoRotate Cloud for ($49/Year), which enables users to sync palettes between multiple computers and share palettes with colleagues, collaborators, and clients.
