ofxColourLoversHelper

Overview

An openFrameworks helper add-on to handle ColourLovers palettes. The core of this add-on is https://github.com/borg/ofxColourLovers. Thanks to @borg!

I just added some methods to help integrate ColourLovers into my projects/add-ons. Switched from ofxUI to ofxImGui and better user control. Switched from ofxHttpUtils to ofxHTTP to fix Colour Lover API CloudFlare updates.
