Description Cosimo Cecchi 2012-08-23 16:32:58 UTC 
The color palette displayed by the new control center panel could be more useful; see attached screenshot - I get two or three very similar shades of orange, blue and green, while the same space could be used to display more varied colors.

Props to Garrett LeSage for doing most of the daunting mixing & selection.

Looks good. Let's try to get this in. I doubt we need a UI break since this is new UI anyway.
