===== Description =====
Blend color and images dropped onto the blender. IBlendit is a creative interpretation of a combination of simulation and visualisation of color mixing, and may incidentally be a genuinely useful tool in the arsenal of the graphic design artist and a fulfilling source of amusement for all.

{{styles.gif|Themes}} Now with four funky styles and nine vibrant colors.
{{menu.gif|Status Menu}} Now can right-click on the body to see the blending status, and then show the file or open the color picker. You could use the blender as a file clipboard or to actually work out the average color of an image - how's that for useful!
