Change the default palette in Apple's Color Picker.
 Everytime the I need to select a color in an application, Apple's Color Picker opens and the HSV palette is available. While the rainbow patterns are pretty, it's not quite my idea of a user friendly way to pick blue!
How about changing the Color Picker to always open to the Crayon Box instead?
 The Color Picker is an Extension in the System Folder.
Open a copy of it in ResEdit and find the dpkr resource.
Open it with a double-click.
There is only one ID, number -5760.
Open it with a double-click.
 Under Subtype, enter the name of the palette you want to be your new default.
Use the table below:
CMYK = CMYK
Crayon Picker = NAME
HLS = HLS
HSV = HSV
HTML = HTML
RGB = RGB
Save your work and quit ResEdit. Replace the old Color Picker extension with the new one and restart your computer.
To see the new default palette, open the Appearance Manager and under Highlight Color, select other.
