Aesthetic Web Colors

What's a good resource for choosing aesthetically pleasing color combinations and themes? At the moment I'm using a color picker and stealing from various places. It's a hack.

I'm just going to throw something out there, but it's more important (IMO) to have a color scheme that promotes usability over one that is aesthetically pleasing. This resources on Designing more Usable Web Sites might be of interest, along with this blog posting, which addresses both look AND usability.
