The methods for keeping your data safe from prying eyes vary from user to user. Some prefer simply hiding the files from everyone else (if they don't know where it is, they can't peek in), but accidental finding has been known to happen, especially if the perpetrator knows how to make hidden data visible (a... |

Even if their importance is undeniable for a web designer or developer, color pickers are not given the proper attention.
