Pokemon Crystal Pokemon Crystal+

Pokemon crystal is a classic 8 bit video game on the Gameboy Color. 8 bit color selection is an exercise in constraints and minimalism, especially when each pokemon must have a unique palette. This dataset is extracted from the palettes of individual pokemon, taken from the in-game graphical assets.

Makoto Shinkai Makoto Shinkai+

The works of Makoto Shinkai - including 5 centimeters per second, the garden of words and children who chase lost voices. Shinka's works are often less saturated than similar anime, preferring to use more realistic, photographic colors in general. He reserves more contrasting palettes for the emotional climax and the many set-pieces of sky, stars and ocean that appear in his films.

Mao-era posters Mao-era posters+

Chinese posters produced during the Mao-era have surprisingly diverse color palettes - not only stark red but warm, soft colors to bring the bright accents into relief. The color design is very intentional and highly stylized, so generated colors may not match your input exactly.

Usage tips

If no colors are locked Colormind will generate color palettes at random.

If you have a specific starting color in mind, pick that color and lock it. The location of the color does matter, so experiment with different placements.

If you have two complementary colors, try placing them at the opposite ends of the palette. Colormind will tend to generate nice intermediate values.

If you want more variety try placing contrasting colors closer together, colormind will then tend to create triadic and other more complex color schemes.
