How to use Image Color Picker

  1. Upload an image

    Click the upload area or drag and drop any PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, or BMP image.

    Hover your cursor over the image. A live color preview updates in real time showing the exact color under your cursor.

    Click anywhere on the image to capture that pixel's color. The HEX, RGB, and HSL values appear instantly.

  4. Copy your color values

Image Color Picker FAQ

Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. The image is loaded into a canvas element in your browser. It never leaves your device — all color sampling happens locally.

How accurate are the color values?
Values are pixel-accurate from the raw image data. They represent the exact color at the clicked pixel position, including any JPEG compression artefacts.

Can I pick multiple colors?
Yes. Each click adds a new color to the palette. The tool saves your 10 most recent picks for easy comparison and copying.

Does this work with screenshots?
Yes. Any image format works — photos, screenshots, UI mockups, illustrations, and graphic designs.

What color formats are available?
HEX (e.g. #ff3d4a), RGB (e.g. rgb(255, 61, 74)), and HSL (e.g. hsl(355, 100%, 62%)) — all three are displayed for each picked color.

Can I extract a complete color palette from a photo?
Yes. Click the dominant colors in your image one at a time to build a manual palette. For automated palette extraction from the entire image, try a dedicated palette generator tool.

What image formats are supported?
PNG, JPG/JPEG, WebP, GIF, and BMP images up to 50MB.

Can I use the picked colors in CSS directly?
Yes. Copy the HEX or HSL value and paste it directly into your CSS, Tailwind config, or design tool color input.

Background

Extract exact colors from any image with pixel-level precision. Upload a photo, screenshot, design mockup, or any image file, then click anywhere to instantly get the HEX, RGB, and HSL values for that exact pixel. A live color preview follows your cursor so you can see the color value before committing to a click.

The tool maintains a palette of your 10 most recent picks — each with its HEX, RGB, and HSL values displayed for one-click copying. Build a complete color palette from a brand photo, extract the exact shades from a competitor's website screenshot, or identify colors from design mockups to use in your CSS.

Common use cases: identifying brand colors from logos and marketing materials, matching colors from photos for design projects, extracting palette inspiration from artwork or photography, verifying contrast ratios between picked colors, and reverse-engineering color schemes from screenshots.

Everything runs in your browser using the Canvas API. Your images are never uploaded to any server. Works with photos, screenshots, illustrations, graphics, and any supported image format.
