I actually was going to point out that less saturated colors get... well, maybe not more dramatic, but in-my-opinion-"better" themes. For example, with this one, any but 'complementary' are almost usable http://rriepe.github.io/1pxdeep/#e9ede4

Also, anybody that's using this should be sure to add a rule like

    input { outline: none}
or it completely ruins the whole 1pxdeep theme with OS-defined outlines on clicked buttons. On the demo, this may not work for the main "Scheme now" button, but

    #change_color { outline: none }
will.

Less saturated colors definitely produce better themes. The very-close-to-white colors (and white itself) behave weird in general but I liked all the results so I just kept it. Should fix that navbar contrast issue though...

Be careful with outline:none. It's an accessibility issue:
