Color Picker from Image

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between HEX, RGB, and HSL color codes?

HEX (#ff5733) is a compact form of RGB and is most common in CSS. RGB lists red, green, and blue values directly. HSL uses hue, saturation, and lightness, which is easier for tweaking shades by hand.

Why does the picked color look different from what I see on screen?

Browsers and operating systems apply color profiles, and JPG compression shifts hues slightly. The picked value reflects the actual pixel data, which can differ from how your monitor renders it.

Can I match a brand color from a logo screenshot?

Approximately, yes. Pick from the cleanest, largest flat area of the logo to avoid edge anti-aliasing pixels that blend with the background.
