Oops, maybe you got me wrong? I didn't mean sK1 itself. I meant the way the palettes are shown on their page, their previews. Having such a preview in Scribus or in an online help would help a lot. Because the colours shown give a vague impression of the emotions the colours of a palette are intended to transport. Regards Rolf
