Summary: far more than just a color wheel or web-safe palette
Review: While this book covers the importance of a Web-safe color palette and what colors vibrate, shock, stand out and clash, it covers a lot more territory that one would expect.Extremely Mac-friendly, the book is busting w/ screenshots from Mac OS 10.x (aqua interface), including many industry standard applications such as Fireworks and Photoshop. This should not scare away the Windows user, as color theory and the applications used are cross-platform. Topics and skills such as image slicing, transparent backgrounds, animated graphics and more are explained in detail. Adding color into Macromedia Flash and even adding your own splash into QuickTime movies is explored. This book is a true treasure trove of skills and knowledge... and the person looking for this book may never need the information and the person needing this information may never think to look in this book for that information in the first place. This will be a mainstay on my reference shelf as I continue to push the envelope in Web design while balancing the needs of the visually impaired and the limits of the browsers currently available.
