Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get the colour codes (HEX) from an image?

Upload the image and the tool analyses it to produce a palette of its main colours, each with a copy-ready HEX value. Click a swatch to copy its code straight into your CSS or design app.

Can I get the RGB values as well as HEX?

Yes. Each extracted colour shows both its HEX and RGB representation, so you can use whichever your tool expects — HEX for the web, RGB for many image editors.

How do I pick the colour of one specific spot in a photo?

Use the eyedropper to sample an exact pixel and read back its HEX and RGB value. This is the fastest way to match a colour you see in a photo or screenshot.

How many colours does the palette extract?

The tool surfaces the most dominant colours in the image as a balanced palette, which is usually enough to capture a photo's mood or a brand's core colours for a design system.

Is my image uploaded to extract colours?

No. Colour extraction runs locally in your browser, so your image is never sent to a server — useful when sampling colours from confidential mock-ups or unreleased artwork.
