I have no relation to that company. Just unfortunate to share a name lol (I've struggle with getting my stuff on Google for years because of them though ).

I think Mackenzie-Childs is two people, Mackenzie + Childs that formed that company. Not sure if my parents knew about the company or not when they named me lol

Thanks! Glad you like them :) Eventually I'll create more.

In the meantime though, some other artists that are giving away their coloring pages for free:

Try again. I'm not sure what was causing this issue, but I added new links and it should be working properly now :)

I intended on creating more, but haven't had time yet. These 4 took probably like 10 - 20 hours each.

Hah yeah my intention was to create a lot more, and maybe have some other artists contribute some... But never got around to it unfortunately.

Fast food is what I was referring to

You really don't see blue used in fast food branding, mostly red & yellow.

Ah gotcha. Yeah there is definitely a lot of pastel palettes on there. I guess that's what I lean towards. I'll try to add more, non pastel palettes soon :)

Nice :)

Yeah, ended up selling that one :/

But Happy Hues is a better version imho :)

I think No-Code is great because it allows anyone to test out and launch their ideas.

I definitely don't think it's the end of developers though. Some of these no-code projects will grow to a point where they need more custom solutions where a developer will be needed.

I'm thinking about building a Figma or Sketch file that allows someone to do just that :)

Ahh, thanks for the feedback! I can definitely tone down the animations... Or maybe remove them for everything but the homepage.

I did the reload / separate pages because 1) to make my life easier building it lol and 2) so you could send links to specific palettes.

Thanks dude, you're too kind
Re:Happy Hues – Curated colors in context on Friday December 13, 2019 @10:22AM (#21782319)
It probably _could_ be, but I'd probably have to build (or hire someone to build) some sort of external app / database to manage all that.

A simpler solution I thought about what recreating the layout in Figma or Sketch, then someone could create their own palette simply by tweaking color swatches (and have it auto update on the mockup).

What do you mean by same style? Like alternating backgrounds and such?

I used Webflow CMS to build it, so I was a little bit limited in the amount of colors I could use unless I wanted to upgrade to the business plan lol.

Thanks! So glad you're inspired! And yes, teaching what I'm learning has helped me just as much (if not more) as it has helped others.

Good luck learning the back-end stuff (and the front-end)!!
