Color Picker

Image Tools

Pick any color from an image and get its HEX, RGB and HSL values.

What is Color Picker?

Color Picker reads the exact color of any pixel in an image and gives you its HEX, RGB, and HSL values, ready to copy. Drop a photo, screenshot, or design, then hover to preview a color and click to lock it in. On supported browsers you can also use the built-in eyedropper to sample a pixel from anywhere on your screen. It all runs in your browser, so your image is never uploaded.

How to use Color Picker

  1. Add an image

    Drop a PNG, JPEG, or WebP onto the dropzone, or click to browse. The image is drawn to a canvas so every pixel can be sampled.

  2. Hover to preview

    Move your pointer across the image to see a live swatch and the color values update in real time as you go.

  3. Click to lock a color

    Click any pixel to freeze that color. The swatch stays put so you can copy a stable value without it changing as your mouse moves.

  4. Copy HEX, RGB, or HSL

    Each format has its own Copy button. Grab #RRGGBB for CSS and design tools, rgb() for the web, or hsl() when you want to tweak hue and lightness.

  5. Sample from your screen

    On browsers that support it, click Pick from screen to use the native eyedropper and sample a color from anywhere — even outside the image.
