In PhotoShop, select a color with the eyedropper tool, then click on the foreground color in left menu bar (the color picker icon at the bottom). That will bring up the color picker popup and at the bottom in the center will be the hex code for that color.

WOW that is easy! I will use your colors

I assume we can all use these colors if we choose too?

You can use these colors if you want, but you don't have to. Since there is just a theme this time, any colors you choose to use are fine!

Count me in.
But I was wondering if I can also use some brown colors?

You can use any colors you want as long as you use the theme Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. The colors listed in the previous posts were just possible choices; there isn't a color requirement at all. It would be nice to see a variety of colors since the theme is so specific.

Thank you Christina.
I just started and I'm using some of these colors (but not all and I added some of my own).

I want to join in again! I had fun with the first one...I will edit and update this when I decide what I am going to attempt. Unfortunately, I am on a laptop that doesn't have all my actions. We are in the middle of a military move and all of my stuff is on it's way here. Can't say my stuff will be great.
