To find great HEX colors, I would recommend you use the following websites:
Online Color Schemer and Generator - This site will generate HEX codes for you and give you suggestions on colors that go well with others.
VisiBone Webmaster's Color Lab - This will list the basic colors for you, in an easy to use palette.

If you are a Firefox user, you should also download the free ColorZilla extension. It has an advanced eye dropper, color picker, page zoomer and more. Click HERE to go to the ColorZilla Install and Download page over at the official Mozilla Firefox addons repository.

One piece of software that I STRONGLY recommend you have is called "Eclipse Palette". Its free and is from an excellent company called "Green Eclipse Software". Here is a preview of what the EclipsePalette program looks like:

I am a proud partner with Green Eclipse Software, so you can download Eclipse Palette directly from my website:
Click here to download

Finally, there is one more program that I would STRONGLY recommend you have and it is once again from Green Eclipse Software. This program is called "EclipseStyle" and it is a free program that lets you easily create all sorts of css sheets and styles. Again, you can download it from my website since I am an official partner:

I hope this helps, and good luck with all your future themeing and template design!

Cheers!

when i don't feel like opening Photoshop I use this color palette which is basically the Photoshop one, but in pure Javascript.

also try GIMP http://www.gimp.org - nice photoshop replacement
or www.getpaint.net

If you want to have GIMP but are used to the photoshop style try GIMP Shop

I use FireWorks and a program called PIXIE which is a simple color grabber..I can hover over anything and COPY it's color to the clipboard for pasting. It makes my life incredibly easy for color work.

Thanks for the colour picker, I'm too lazy to open photoshop most of the time.

The pre-installer does download, but the second step gives a message about "checking my Internet connection"
