While this is neat website, I'd like to see the logo or source of the colors by the swatch. How did you get the colors, manually or did you do some automated mining?

  > I'd like to see the logo Me too. When I think Adobe, I think red and white. This site excludes white and additionally has a bunch of other colors. Alibaba is orange and white to me. The OP site has only orange.

  Creator of BC here. If you click on a brand (outside of a swatch, which will just copy the color to your clipboard), that expands the row. If there is URL the data was sourced from, a "Source URL" link will display there. Looks like Adobe was added before we were doing that, but if you expand a brand like 500px, you'll see it.

On Chrome/Linux the Skillshare promo banner on the bottom obscures the toasts when something gets copied to the clipboard. You just see the upper part of a small dark rectangle.

  Same on Chrome/Windows and Firefox/Windows

    I was going to be optimistic and assume they tested this on some browser and just forgot about a weird edge case only present in Chrome/Linux. Looks like they probably didn't test the banner/toast combination at all.

  Yeah, that was a screw up by me. :(

It'd be interesting to see them plotted by frequency on a color map. Which are the most colors? Which are less common?

  This would be interesting, especially if it included sector along with sector. Do all health ins companies have a blue, all oil companies a red, etc..

  I exported the list and created a small node app to sort the colors: https://github.com/dcustodio/colorcount https://github.com/dcustodio/colorcount the top five is #00000 (66 occurrences), #CC0000 (18), #FF6600 (12), #FF0000 (10), #FFCC00 (8)

    This is a really tool. I've always been meaning to create a list of all the works that use BrandColors or are derived from it. If I ever get around to doing that, I'll make sure to include this.
