looking forward not to hear excuses about some tags related to Exif.Photo.MakerNote, Exif.Image.Make and their dependencies that can't be removed which represent roughly 40 KB of file size

@BGM: The standard edition isn't free if you're a commercial entity, hence the price tag. |
ColorPicker allows color code selections, primarily for web development. Colors can be selected similar to the Windows color selection via an HSL color graphic, and both HSL and RGB values can be adjusted individually. So-called web-safe colors can also be selected via a graphic (e.g. for 3-digit CSS color values) and values can be copied or pasted in different formats. The program allows automatic copy and paste of values that enable data exchange with other programs, including text and HTML editors.
Color code formats include hexadecimal, decimal RGB, CSS hexadecimal, CSS 3 digits hexadecimal, CSS RGB decimal, CSS RGB percent, CSS HSL).
Note: Program discontinued.

i like it but i wish it was easier to search for say symbols like dollar signs, ampersands etc and keep all the alphabet letter variations separate. Also, should be able to have a "favorites" tab that the user adds the best ones to.

webfork yes I did thank some time before I posted this, its not something I do often but this App really helped me and made it very easy to do what I was trying to do. Before using WinCompose it was a real nightmare to do things I wanted and most often I failed. So once again thanks for the hard work on this great useful software. ^5 |

I've updated the entry. Since the changelog is only available in German I tried to translate it for our purposes, but I'm not sure to what extent my translation is correct...

It should be mentioned, that eToolz requires NET3.5 - I think since version 3. It does NOT run on Windows 8 and higher with the integrated NET 4+, if the optional NET3.5-package is not installed! |
