Colors for Men

Colors for Men is designed to help you, the culturally color-ignorant man, to understand what the heck people are talking about when they say fushia. Face it, most of us know 7 colors, red, green, white, black, blue, yellow and brown.

Using Colors for Men fixes that! Download it, and launch, and the first thing you'll see is the master color list.

If you're looking for the Colors for Men editor, it's at the bottom of this page.

Broswe the list, search by name, sort by name or color hue.

Tap on a color entry to see the details

The color box shows you more of the color. You can add notes(like Her Favorite Color). You can also add this color to a collection, more on that later.

Tap the color box for even more color detail

The color fills the screen, with some interesting additions. You can get the color numeric value from the info box, and CFM adds two racing stripesdown the center of the color. You can tap on those to select a color to contrast with the master color, to see how colors may work together.

Collections

The Collections button allows you to add that color to any of the collections you've created or had sent to you. In the Collections tab you can create or delete collections, and tap on the collection to see all the colors within it.

Tapping the envelope icon allows you to send any of your collections to freinds to share your colors.

Adding your own colors is easy. Tap on the Capture tab and the color selector will appear. You can pick a picture from your current library, or take a picture of a color you want to remember. Move your finger around the image to move the blue crosshair, name hte color, and tap Createto add the color to your collection.
