Question 1

How does the image color picker work?

The tool samples pixels from your uploaded image, groups similar colors together, and returns the most visually distinct dominant colors as hex codes.

Question 2

What image formats are supported?

Accepted Answer

PNG, JPG, WEBP, and any other image format your browser supports. The file is processed entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to a server.

How many colors can I extract?

You can extract between 4 and 12 dominant colors. Use the Colors slider in the panel to adjust the number.

Click any color swatch to copy its hex code, or use the 'Copy all colors' button to copy the full palette as a comma-separated list.

Question 6

Can I use the extracted colors commercially?
