Technology Lighthouse has released ColorCache v4.0 - a powerful yet easy to use suite of color tools for web site developers, graphical artists and digital scrapbookers.

This compact toolkit includes a color picker, color scheme generator, and a color management system. Version 4 now adds a powerful HTML preview facility that lets you reproduce existing web pages in an infinite array of different color combinations. Designed to be unobtrusive and fit seamlessly with the way you work, ColorCache is compatible with most graphics programs, and is a popular choice for professionals and home users alike.

The new HTML Preview Window works with a web page you've created or downloaded from the Internet. Adjust hue, saturation and lightness using simple slider controls and watch your web page change color before your eyes, from vibrant colors to subtle pastel shades. In moments you can reproduce your page in a variety of color schemes and save each version to disk ready for upload to the web. You can even extract your favorite color schemes and store them in ColorCache's handy color scheme management system for future use.

ColorCache's palette builder allows you to generate beautiful color schemes at the click of a button. Simply pick a color from a photograph and let the built-in formulas instantly produce a selection of matching color schemes. Choose from harmonies, complements, analogous colors and more to give your work a polished, professional look.

If you don't find what you want in the stock color formulas you can easily edit them or define your own using the powerful formula editor. You can even reverse engineer formulas from an existing color scheme. If you see a color scheme that you like let ColorCache reproduce it for you in a variety of different hues and shades.

Finally, the versatile color picker will harvest colors from anywhere on your computer screen, including web pages, photographs and images. It can be invoked with a single key press, and has a built-in magnifier controlled by your mouse wheel. Colors you've picked are collected in palettes, ready to be copied to the clipboard in a variety of formats. Palettes can also be saved to file for import into popular graphics programs such as Photoshop, Paintshop Pro, Illustrator and Freehand.

ColorCache is designed for use on Windows Vista, XP, 2003 Server, 2000, and 98/ME.
