Heh, you do know that you can just press ALT for the colour picker, and that doing undo is unnecessary in that case, except when you set the pixel on a different layer? It won't have any transparency to it :)

I guess this is more fancy than my old AA-colourfinder :D http://omr.planet-d.net/trash/aac.zip
Nope, it's not. That is actually where I got the idea for mine at.
Mine was so it didn't exit everytime.
It also was set so the output was in the color outputed color for AA.
.think difrnt.

he means that you can be using the pencil tool, and hold down the alt key while still on pencil to temporarily switch to the eye dropper.  this is a big helper for speed!

add a div where the background-color equals the result, it would be good for copy and paste preview

You simply take your 2 RGB values and enter them in, and blamo! out comes your perfect 50% AA color.

I think he was looking for something more like this:

aa_r = (c1_r + c2_r) / 2
aa_g = (c1_g + c2_g) / 2
aa_b = (c1_b + c2_b) / 2
If you insist on being pessimistic about your own abilities, consider also being pessimistic about the accuracy of that pessimistic judgement.
