Questions
Is every color equally likely?
Yes. Your browser's cryptographic random number generator picks the stopping point, and the 12 natural shades have equal slices, which gives each one a 1 in 12 chance. The other color sets work the same way.
Can I add my own colors?
Yes. Type any color into the options box, one per line. Your own options use the wheel's standard colors.
Can I spin eye color too?
Yes. Press Eye color above the options for brown, dark brown, hazel, amber, green, blue and gray.
