When to Use This Tool
Extract exact colors from design mockups, competitor websites (screenshots), or brand assets to ensure pixel-perfect color matching in your web projects.
Pick precise brand colors from logos, product photos, or marketing materials to create consistent brand guidelines and color specifications.

How It Works
Upload up to 10 images in any common format (PNG, JPG, WEBP, etc.). The image will be loaded onto a canvas for pixel-level color extraction.
Click the 'Enable Picker Mode' button to activate the color picking functionality. The cursor will change to a crosshair to indicate picker mode is active.
Click anywhere on the image to extract the exact pixel color at that location. The RGB values are read directly from the canvas ImageData.
The picked RGB color is automatically converted to HEX, HSL, HSV, and CMYK formats using standard color space conversion algorithms.
Each picked color is added to your collection with all format values displayed. You can pick unlimited colors from any uploaded image.
Export your picked colors as JSON (for design tools), CSS variables (for web development), or CSV (for comprehensive documentation with all color formats).

Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the color picking?
The color picker extracts the exact RGB pixel values from the image with 100% accuracy. However, note that image compression (especially JPEG) may introduce slight color variations from the original. For best results, use PNG or other lossless formats.
Can I pick colors from multiple images?
Yes! You can upload up to 10 images and switch between them. All picked colors are stored in one collection, and each color tracks which image it came from. This is useful for extracting colors from multiple brand assets or design mockups.
What's the difference between this and Color Palette from Image?
Image Color Picker lets you manually click to extract specific pixel colors, giving you precise control. Color Palette from Image automatically extracts dominant colors using algorithms like K-means clustering. Use this tool when you need exact colors from specific locations, and use Color Palette from Image when you want automatic palette generation.
Which color format should I use?
It depends on your use case: HEX for web CSS, RGB for universal compatibility, HSL/HSV for intuitive color adjustments in design tools, and CMYK for print production. The tool provides all formats so you can use whichever is needed for your workflow.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No, all image processing happens entirely in your browser using HTML5 Canvas API. Images are never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security for sensitive brand assets or confidential designs.
