Looking for spreading glass
In Amber's great tutorial:
Dargon Scale Beads Tutorial
These colors are mentioned as good ones to use for the dots because of their tendency to "spread or bleed":
Lauscha Olive, Lauscha Steel Blue, EDP (Purple 254)
What other colors fall into this category? I'm about to put in my first ever order of glass and want to pick up some glass to make these with.
Thanks, all!

I happen to like petroleum green as a spreading glass. Drop me a PM and I will send you some. A little goes a long way.

Brian - Check out this chart for cool color reactions: http://users.zoominternet.net/~beadg...ce_effects.jpg
I'd add Rubino and Reichenbach Magic as good spreaders.
