Ever had trouble mixing a true mid value on your palette? Don't know what that is or why it's important? Here's a handy palette insert I've made for you to help with that and a bunch of other stuff. Just print it out on photopaper and put it under a glass palette. Hey presto, easy value comparisons and a colour wheel to boot. Nice!
To download it, right-click on it and choose 'save target as' or 'save image as' or something similar and save it to your desktop or somewhere else you'll be ableto find it easily.
