Issue Summary
Great module! But not a big fan of Farbtastic, myself, to be honest. This one looks much more usable, nicer: http://www.eyecon.ro/colorpicker/
Not saying you have to throw Farbtastic away, but it would be nice to give users an option to swap-in jQuery ColorPicker instead, if they want to.
I would like to work on the appropriate patch to do that, if you are open to the idea.
Please let me know.

That colorpicker is flat awesome!!! We should definitely provide the possibility to use that one.
#2
I'm going to mess around with it this week, for sure...

Here's some more links to jquery based colorpickers that could possibly be integrated
http://jqueryui.pbworks.com/ColorPicker
and +1 for http://www.eyecon.ro/colorpicker/

http://drupal.org/project/jquery_colorpicker someone made a module for it. (was looking for this and found both).
No experience with either, but I'm of the opinion the modules should be merged together with some sort of way to say in the element which one to use.

@hefox. You're right. We need to get in touch with the maintainer of jQuery Colorpicker.

------------------------------------------------
here's an idea
merge with colorpicker module and support both scripts, the Fartbastic Colorpicker and the jQuery Colorpicker.
there are some modules that act like APIs that support multiple libraries.
naming a few: Starbox API, Charts, WYSIWYG, Views Slideshow (attempting to support multiple types of slideshows).
having a common API, there would be no need for duplication and the CCK module would apply to both scripts ;)

where to put jQuery Colorpicker scripts:
