honestly who cares what 'colour' an ip address is? plus, it doesn't work

"Your IP Address is

We can't find it... Sorry! "



Doesn't work for me either. I'm guessing it interprets the 4 octets as RGBA or something similar. It's a cute idea.


It's the first 3 octets as RGB, shuffled around to create complementary and triad colours.


Hey guys. Sorry its not working, its on a shared hosting, hosting it somewhere else right now. Its just a bit of fun really, grabs the first 3 numbers of your ip, turns that into an rgb color then generates a color pallet.


Might I recommend a VPS? Don't worry, I'm not getting comission, but Digital Ocean has pretty reasonable prices for fun side projects like this. BTW, this works flawlessly for me on FF, but I wish my colors were prettier though ;)


It's using http://jsonip.com/ apparently. Does going to this URL works for you?


Doesn't work for me in Fx 18 but it does seem to work in Chrome (both Win7)
