I just wondered if you would use colorzilla with it? I have firefox as my browser, so I am thinking yes.. hopefully. Any one know, I'd appreciate some feedback. Thank you!

- If you are using stock FF and not iceweasel or anything, then the addons for FF should work, no matter what distro you are running. I haven't run into any problems w/ any of my FF addons and I've been running various Linux distros for years. Colorilla is an FF addon, yes ?

Ok, wow... I am not good with this kind of stuff.. lol I do not know what an iceweasel is.. LOL I am using the FF that loaded when I downloaded Ubuntu... But yes, Colorzilla is made for Mozilla FF. That's why I was kind of assuming/hoping it would work. I think I am going to try to download it and see if it works... wish me luck! :)

- You're good to go !

Sweet! Thanks for your help!!!

- Not a problem. Enjoy the penguin :)

Regarding your unanswered question about Iceweasel: Iceweasel is a Debian repackaging of Firefox to resolve a few conflicts with Debian's interpretation of free software. Unlike its 'parent' OS Debian, Ubuntu isn't as strict about what counts as free or nonfree software.

Thank you for the info.. Even though I didn't understand much of it.. LOL ;)

Do you use Colorzilla? I just wondered because I downloaded it and it seems to work basically the same way as when I had it before I switched to Ubuntu.... except when I put the color codes in at the Hair Salon... it doesn't work. :( I'm not sure if the codes are just not being recognized or what.... =/

- When you're in the hair salon and you put in your own color codes, click out of the box, or on the box below it to see the color change in the preview box. I have not used colorzilla but the few times I've used the hair salon, I always would use my own color codes, and that's how I did it.

Ok, thank you.... I will try that next time! When you used your own codes, where did you get them from?

- If I was matching a color, I'd save the item (wig, clothing, the overall HA) it in gimp and use gimp's color picker tool, otherwise, if I had a specific shade in mind, I'd use that hex code, ex. 872657 makes a lovely raspberry color, or 321321 makes a rich navy. ffefdb makes a lovely cream. Those are just a few I remember b/c I've really liked their shades over the years.

I see! Well thank you for the info... hopefully I can implement it in the future.. :)

- Oh you're welcome :D I use the gimp a lot so I'm pretty familiar w/ it and it's color picker, although having an in browser picker must be very handy. KDE4 also apparently has one you can add to the widget taskbar thingy but if you're running Ubuntu you must have either gnome3 or that new Unity that I've never bothered to mess with.

I am not familiar with either gnome3 or Unity... so I am not sure what you mean. LOL I am pretty computer challenged!!! Do you think the gimp will work with Ubuntu if I can't get the colorzilla to work right in the hair salon?

it should have come preinstalled, if not, um what's the package manager, synaptic? You can search there.

Ok, nevermind.. cause you are speaking a language I don't understand.. LOL

hehe sorry. The way that ubuntu installs packages (The stuff you use, like ff, gimp, solitaire, crack attack .... (I love that game...) ) is a package manager. It's probably in your menu someplace. When you open it, you can search for what you want to install.

...

Ohhh I see. I will have to look. Thanks for the explanation too! I can't get the colorzilla to work... it puts a # sign in front of the numbers/letters for the hex code.. and when I remove it, it's one character short. I ended up going to december.com to look up hex codes. I'm not sure why CZ isn't working. Boo! :(

- Add in a 0 or a 1 and you ought to be close if it only inputs the # and the first five in the box. you won't be so far off.

I had considered trying a 0.... but didn't. lol I will try that! Thanks! :)
