Better alternative to Painter's Picker: easier to use, supports more apps (including 64bit), new OS X versions. I only wonder why some of the functions are disabled by default and hidden in the settings pane...

I use it for PIxelmator, great features and really fast response, no lags and crashes on my side. Only thing I would add at this point is dark HUD theme to more fit Pixelmator.

At last a color wheel for mac that's under active development. Pretty nice features too. Real hidden gem is ability to browse history of colors. It would be even better to SEE it, maybe as third mode in swatches, or to export like "e" shortcut does. Shortcut for exporting current color would be nice, dragging many colors from all the way can be tedious. Trial is short at only 7 days, mine already ended. I think I'll buy, it already updated itself (bugfixes and support for more apps it said) so I hope it will remain active and get more improvements and features.

/// WARNING DON'T INSTALL SYSTEM WIDE /// Installed the trial for System wide options. Now the trial is over I get Text Edit eating up all memory trying to access the coolorus website - very bad. I have 32gb - text edit continually uses memory until nothing is left - 24gb for text edit! How do you uninstall!? I can't see any option for this. Otherwise good features but you can get most for free using Kuler plugin for Adobe.
