Farbtastic: jQuery color picker plug-in

Description:

Farbtastic is a jQuery plug-in that can add one or more color picker widgets into a page through JavaScript.
Each widget is then linked to an existing element (e.g. a text field) and will update the element's value when a color
is selected.

Farbtastic uses layered transparent PNGs to render a saturation/luminance gradient inside of a hue circle. No Flash,
no pixel sized divs.

• It's true WYSIWYG: the color you click is the color you get (with the exception of +1/-1 rounding
  differences). Many pickers throw up an arbitrary gradient that's only a poor match.
• It uses the intuitive HSL color space rather than the more common HSB, which means it's easy to make a
  color brighter without touching its saturation, or vice versa.
• It's built on the compact jQuery library and totals in at only 23KB, including images and CSS.
