TBers, Over the years I have been asked many times what are good color schemes to use in PowerPoint presentations. I recently found a nice tool on the Internet, based on research in the field of cartography, that creates nice color schemes for you. See http://www.personal.psu.edu/cab38/ColorBrewer/ColorBrewer_intro.html This tool is based on the idea that color combinations can be sequential, diverging or qualitative. What is nice about this tool is it will give you the RGB or hex values of the colors so you can plug them into PowerPoint as needed. You can also use the PowerPoint tool of "picking a color" with the eyedropper and grab the color right from this web site. Mr. James B.
