A coloured name tool (created by me, in Java)

[Sylett]

This is my second time posting this... I believe there is an error/issue with the forum and my post was lost along the way.

Anyway I'm not going to type a huge description, but I have created a small program in Java to create a coloured name for Mafia. Currently it has 3 preset colour-modes which are: "Random Colours", "Rainbow Gradient" and "Watch List". I would like some feedback before I code in any more presets and before I begin coding the custom gradient mode.

So without further ado, here's a screenshot:

(It's not much to look at, but I am new to creating user interfaces and I think it gets the job done)

and if you want to give it a try for me then you can download it here: http://www.2shared.com/file/0x76Bfow/ColouredMafiaName.html.

I think you'll need Java SE 7 installed to run it by the way. It's a tiny application and I am happy to share the source code if you want it.

Leave any feedback please!

Pretty nice app so far.
I'm loving the random colour option XD

Also, a suggestion. Could you make an option to include or exclude the " - " at the front? I like to use the colour generator for LW's too.

Thanks :-) I'm currently in the process of trying to make it work like the flash app on the tutorials board (so you can chain together different formats). That's a great idea to include or exclude the "-" and should be very easy to implement :-)

Cool idea, someone should stick it in fred's colour guide thread :)

I really like the fact it automatically keeps the code under 256 characters, very useful.
