Questions
How do I get the HEX code of a color in an image?
Open the image, point at the color and click. The color is added to the list with its HEX, RGB and HSL values; click any value to copy it.
Why use a 3 × 3 or 5 × 5 average?
Photos have noise: neighboring pixels of the “same” color differ slightly. Averaging a small square gives a steadier, more representative color. Use 1 pixel for flat graphics and logos.
Can I pick colors with the keyboard?
Yes. Tab to the image, move the crosshair with the arrow keys (hold Shift to move 10 pixels) and press Enter or Space to pick. Each pick is announced to screen readers.
Are the colors exact?
They are the image’s colors as your browser shows them, in standard sRGB. Photos with a wide-gamut color profile are converted to sRGB first, which is what HEX and RGB values describe.
Want a whole palette instead?
The color palette extractor finds the main colors of an image for you.
Is it free? Do I need an account?
It is free to use and there is nothing to sign up for. There are no watermarks and no daily limits.
