Back on topic - I use the default picker. I would use the triangle were it snappier. The CMYK sliders are a must - but they could be added to the 'scales' color picker in order to consolidate. I don't have any use for the watercolor picker, but I can see why some folks would like it. The palette picker doesn't seem useful unless you can edit/load/save the palette(s).

[Gimp-developer] default setup for 2.4 comments
Sven mention on irc the issue of choosing what the default setup for 2.4 should be. So here are some of my thoughts: 1. In the toolbox, the fg/bg color, and brush/patter/gradient boxes should be on. 2. Add color selector and palette dialogs to the default "Layers, Channels, Paths, Undo | Brushes, Patterns, Gradient" dialog that comes up currently. 3. Change the default image size (any particular reason it is 377x233?) I'd suggest 1024x768 4. Don't show the devices dialog by default. It's a bit redundant with #1, and only shows one device for most users. 5. It might be nice to have the stock round/square brushes be dynamic brushes by default. (If I understand correctly, theres a small concern that this might break some existing scripts?) 6. A wider selection of basic brushes would be good, especially with the #5. 7. I'd like to see some high resolution brushes included, especially now with brush downscaling being easy to get to. 8. Maybe some more examples of pixmap/hose brushes. I kind of hate that green pepper and vine brush (and I made them...). Not sure what exactly yet, but I have some ideas: a. something that makes obvious use of the directional pipes would be good. b. Maybe a simple tube drawing brush (aka, a rendered sphere with the spacing set to a low value) c. Maybe a couple more (bigger) sizes of the Pencil Sketch brushes d. a wilber brush? (totally useless, but hey... it's wilber) e. a series of flipped versions of the "Caligraphic Brush" series 9. I'd turn on "Save Tool options on exit" by default. We have a "reset to default" in the dialogs if someone wants to reset the tools. 10. Man, am I ever tired of those default pattern options. (Mostly my fault unfortunately). They didn't age very well. Not sure if we can do much about it without breaking scripts. 11. Ditto with the gradients, though we should probably add another example or two of using the dynamic color stuff in gradients Thats all that comes to mind at the moment.

No objections personally, but if I recall correctly, the new comment violates some inconsenquential part of the GNU coding standards, if we care about them.

The purpose of the CMYK selector is not to allow intuitive color selection. It's meant for the case where you have to use a color that is specified in CMYK. Given that you are using the correct color profile, you should be able to get the matching RGB color by using the CMYK selector.
