Default Reset Colors on Toolbar

For those who are fans of the Color Picker tool, your have probably had this question - How do I get my original colors back? Well if you reset your toolbar, you will get back the original colors, but lose all other changes you made to your toolbar.

Since I have had this question asked to me quite a few times, I came up with a simple solution. I reset my toolbar, and attached a picture of it to this post.

Now you can open up this picture in AS, then use your Color Picker to select the colors and manually reset each of your color boxes!

Problem solved!

Cool advice.... just a shame you can't spell colour

You Americans just like missing letters out of words don't you?

Maybe we should start a list of our "differences". I'll start.....

What about the weird ones...

fringe - bangs

When I worked in the US I started a dictionary! Must have it in the loft somewhere...

There is a great comedy bit by Eddie Izzard about the differences in pronunciation of words between the US and the UK.

My favorite part is when he says that we (He is British) say Herbs (He stresses the H), because there is an H in it!
