Tools

The job of coloring interfaces and adding icons is easier, and in fact fun, if you have good tools. I use HyperSnap from www.Hyperionics.com for screen capture, and IconCool from www.IconCool.com for building or editing icons, bitmaps, and other images for graphic controls. GetPixel , mentioned earlier, allows you to see the RGB values for each color displayed anywhere on your screen. You can download GetPixel from www.aimoo.com/getpixel.
