The Wind Rises+
All of Miyazaki's films have brilliant color design and The Wind Rises is no exception. Brilliant blues and greens dominate, juxtiposed with darker somber colors in its depiction of wartime Japan
Watercolor paintings+
Soft pastels and smooth gradations, punctuated by the occasional sharp highlight
Star light+
Stellar photography, auroras and other images of the night sky. Photos of the stars have a surprisingly diverse palette of greens, blues and reds.
Maplestory+
Colors extracted from the graphical assets of Maplestory, a 2d-sidescroller from the early 2000s. Bright, cartoony colors befitting of the game's bubbly style.

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.
