OMG! What Text Editor are you using where you can hover over hex colors and it shows you what they look like. That doesn't appear to work on Sublime Text. What a cool feature.

However I use sublime text and have a colour picker on my mac linked to a short code. That way if there's a colour I like I snap it and it's on my clipboard ready to paste!
