I like color scheme generators in general because I have trouble finding novel colors that go with each other. But it's not clear to me that these are actually good combinations, or if they are, how they might be used?

Maybe you could mock up a small iconic site in css that has a nav set to one of the colors, bits of text set to others, a sidebar set to another, etc. so people can actually envision them. Just a thought.

It's just looping the tutorial for me, clicking 'skip tutorial' just goes back to the beginning.

FWIW: Closing and re-visiting fixed it.

I wish that it showed the previous color scheme if I go back. As it stands I have to go back and then refresh with that URL. (firefox)
