I use a couple of those myself. Maybe I try some of the mentioned ones I don’t know yet. Colourlovers is probably the best out there for finding color combinations. Thanks for the post. Stumbled and retweeted.

35 Perfect Examples Of Branding Design | rt Strategy - Brand Transformation Agency™ | Kelowna Marketing Agency | Creative Services - Branding - Web Design - Advertising - Social Media - Public Relations August 14, 2011
[...] Now that you have an idea that a brand is much more than a logo, it’s time to focus on the design part. The examples we have for you below are on point. The following companies have done an incredible job at monetizing and setting the tone for their brand. As you plan out to create a logo, think about how it will be used. Will it be used on social networks, websites, packaging, business cards, stickers, clothing, pens, USB’s, engraved on products, CD’s, notebooks, and any other things? You need to plan things out, because the colors will be different. Online you will most likely use RBG colors for the logo, while on packaging, business, cards, letter head, and other printing materials will be CMYK. This is a vital part of the process, because if you use lets say an extra bright green it will not be bright at all when printed.
