Here are some links- the first is a color wheel/chart search at Yahoo! Images. The second is a great little online tool that allows you to mix colors online without wasting paint. It also has other areas that are helpful. The third one is a helpful site discussing the color theory. The last one is a nice site with diagrams and explanations about color and mixing.

Well dear taby...I hate to be the first to tell you, but if so, here it goes nothing in life is free and if it is offered free you need to reconsider excepting it. However some good news that comes very close to free and that is take a sit, set your area up with first the three most important colors on the spectrum are red, blue and I believe yellow, because these are the only colors that can not be created using other colors, because all other colors are created by mixing those.
For example yes red and yellow make orange. Blue and red make purple. Then if you mix blue, red and purple you have a third color. I strongly advise you to begin experimenting with mixing colors on your own. Besides what better way to boost up your self esteem and to learn and enhance your artist repertoire from self experimentation.

The professional standard is PANTONE. Their web site is http://www.pantone.com/pages/pantone/index.aspx
They make books of color samples with numbers on them so printers know how to mix inks to achieve specific colors in print. Decorators use them to see all the possible colors they might want to use. You can even get markers in every one of the shades (although that is kind of excessive).
