Help Needed from Designers Who Use Macs...

When I had system 9 on my old iMac, I used to have a color detector/chart that I had downloaded from the internet. I could roll over a particular color and it would give me the html code for it and it was wonderful. I had forgotten about it until a few minutes ago when i was trying to compare colors for something I'm working on. I tried to find it on the internet a few minutes ago but all I could find is color charts and a color detector for PCs, which doesn't really help me.
Are there any Mac designers out there who use such a color wheel/detector? I could sure use one.

Hi there! The webmonkey site helped some but I sure do miss the one I used to have. I will check out the one on Apple.com but right now that's one expense I don't need. I'll have to work with what I've got for now.
What type of writing do you do? I write children's stories and poetry and articles.

I write short stories ..any genre actually from fantasies to historically based ones, like the one story I have that has the Civil War as the background..some stories were published--I also have three, not one, not two but three novels in the works..now if I just had time to do it all--LOL
