I'm not really a fan of the [float, float, float] but if 'rgb(255, 255, 
255)'; is supported I suppose that's ok (heck I could throw a function 
rgb(r, g, b) into code).
However I don't really like the explicit $.color.parse call, I think 
these should already understand that if a string is passed the data 
should be parsed.

Is there an actual repository yet? If you don't have one yet then at 
least a small github repo for now would be good. Then I can fork (fork 
in git speak, nothing to do with project forking) and commit 
improvements you can pull.


I'm very interested in that color picker to. Every other color picker 
I've run into has been a full fledged bloated color picker that defines 
the entire ui, or uses some crappy theming system. However that one you 
have basically just defines nothing but the standard UI pieces that are 
stuck inside of color pickers. That's the kind of thing minimalist 
enough for me to make use of inside our project at work.
We're not using a stock color picker because as part of our UI we're 
also trying to improve the usability and try new things with the color 
picker.
However at the same time while you have the hue bar and hue wheel, it 
doesn't have the classic wheel with internal triangle:

So considering our app is aimed at designers who use photoshop, I might 
still go ahead and experiment with a <canvas/> based color picker and 
try supporting one of photoshop's features:

Canvas should definitely be an interesting experiment, I believe 
gradients are supported, and there is more freedom to how to setup the ui.
