Colour picking consistency

Hello,
One thing I have noticed when editing a template of whatever kind is that of assigning the exact same colour options in other sections. If one chooses say a colour for a hover then wants to select the same colour to highlight another configurable feature lower down the options in the right hand pane, is there an easy way of selecting that exact same colour? I copy the style data between templates OK, it is just the fine tuning in making a template to meet my preferred style that I am asking about.
My working but as yet not completely tested CE4 site is at www.tjowens.com
I have yet to try inserting code to reduce the size of the Kodak logos in the sidebar as all I used for this is Markdown which does not as I understand it do size settings.
Thanks to Rod for putting me on the straight and narrow. I'm now using Album Sets and Albums with 3 different templates.
Regards
TomO

add that color to the color swatch presets so it's instantly available

OK thanks. I'll take a look for that. Another trick I have missed.

I really wish Adobe would either add more colors to the presets or make is to we can create and save preset. Having those colors available would save a lot of time. As it is, I need to write down the hex numbers of colors I frequently use, or sets of colors I use for a particular site I'm working on.
It's a pain.
