Great replacement for Pixel Tracker
I used Pixel Tracker (from 2002!) for years; it was totally integrated with my workflow, the keystrokes, the shortcuts, everything. When I upgraded to Lion it stopped working (I even avoided upgrading for awhile because I knew this was coming, I know, I'm crazy). After trying several other apps I found this one, and I love it. The customizations for keystrokes and color format totally made it for me -- thank you! I'm a happy convert.
Use it Everyday
This is one utility I find myself using everyday now. It's great when editing CSS files; I can select and paste hex colors right in. My only wish is that I could save palettes per client then pull them up when I'm working on that project.
Awesome!
I had a problem with wanting to hide the icon in the menu bar (my only feature i didnt like that didnt come in preferences). They replied instantly on twitter! Perfect app!
