Colour Lovers API lets you pull color palette information with very Flash-friendly urls and XML results! I dare you to make something with this.
Also, I found this little blog post very interesting.

This is a pretty nice site. I love trying new APIs.
Had a quick play around with it and made this -

Click to load a new palette.
I like the addition of patterns, which make it distinct from the similar (and bigger) – kuler – http://kuler.adobe.com/
I’d like to try pulling in random pattern data, and using it as a scaling background image – as seen in Lee’s gotoAndLearn video here – http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play?id=31
Good find guys, I love the blog.

I love COLOURlovers. So much in fact, that we’re going to make it super easy to pull in patterns and colors into Degrafa. Not only from COLOURlovers, but Kuler and other sources as well. It’s building upon this idea:

But, making it much easier for people to implement. Stay tuned!
Here’s my first version of a flash api for colourlovers:

I also made a screensaver:

I have created this experimental app, its called T-Styles

Its like an online graphic generator.
I just added ColourLovers pattern API integration and you can generate your png images from your compositions (experimental feature).
