The Lospec Palette List is a database of palettes for pixel art.
We include both palettes that originate from old hardware that could only display a few colors, as well as palettes created by pixel artists specifically for making art.
This palette was painstakingly designed with hand picked colors intended to recreate the chromatic aberration and other visual effects of a CRT monitor. 32 Colors, 12 Ramps which can each be used individually for monochromatic pieces or together for subtle variations and extra depth. Eight base colors with a sepia tone each have three additional variations in hue leaning to red, green, and blue, which gives the impression of the eight base colors being more neutral (although in reality they're each quite warm).

This example showcases some possible uses of the palette including the intended use of utilizing all colors to mimic the effects of a CRT monitor as shown in the first example as well as how it may look to use the Ramps as individual monochrome palettes as shown in the second example. - by

A collection of colours used in early print media; sampled from various examples here: http://oa.letterformarchive.org/
The colours mostly rely on a black/red/orange/white scheme, but I brewed up companion cyan-greens which bridge across the blues/yellows.
For best results, use in big, punchy blocks.
