Brilliant, thanks!
Thanks for great tip.
Pretty good video, thanks for the tip!
Even quicker just copy the swatch form kuler into photoshop etc and get the rgb value from its colour panel,
Simples (a quote from a meerkat)
Yeah Yeah.
but keep in mind that it only takes long the First time using this, when you built the preset itself. (unless you are a member and download the Preset).
but after that, you can just apply the preset and paste the Hex code.
thats true but in a production environment I usually have photoshop or illustrator open for any project in after effects.
not to go off topic slightly but has the advertisements gone a little bit insane……..I see them everywhere on this site.
maybe someone is getting a little greedy (rubbing my hands together when I say this)
o my. ads here too? lol. anyways, thanx. and flashPredator may have a point too. keep up the good work though!!
peace

Excellent tip! However, should a 21-minute video really be considered a “quick” tip? Just saying…
