For Print and Web Media. CMYK and RGB Formulas. Rating - Good Reference Book for Color Theory Great small sized reference book for those interested or curious about color theory. The book includes hundreds of various color combinations that can be used. Some are a bit odd and don't work together. All around it is a good reference book. Rating - Lost my flair . . . until these After working in newspaper/magazine graphic design for nearly 18 years, I was pretty much coasting on complacency and one gigantic mess of a color pallette that I used at work and at home until I finally picked up both of these Color Indexes (the first one as part of the The Designers Complete Index (Boxed Set) ), which finally broke the monotony, expecially on recent freelance gigs (to which I've returned after a time) where I wowed 'em with the kinds of color combos I USED to create off the top of my head, but before I ...

Rating - Great book, but calibrate your monitor! I thought the book was a little whacked until I realized my monitor was out of calibration. I used the Eye-One Display 2 Monitor Calibrator to calibrate my monitor and now I am getting colors that are VERY close to the book. There isn't much to say about it except that is it very easy to use, very intuitive, and will have you making better color choices without having to learn one single thing about color theory. You can be completely color-theory illiterate and still make great choices using this book. Read More Rating - Great color book for ideas! This book is really helpful when you're stuck using the same color palettes over and over. His first book was good too, but this one is grouped by colors instead of being so random. It's a small book and great to have near computer for when you need a creative boost. see more reviews See all books by author Jim Krause
