Image Color Picker: Extract Color Codes Instantly

Use our **Image Color Picker** tool to easily identify and extract exact color codes (HEX, RGB, HSL) from any point on your uploaded photo. This is perfect for web design and graphic projects.

1. Upload Your Image

Start by uploading the image file you want to sample colors from. The tool will process it for color picking.

File Selection:

  • Click Button: Use the "Select Image" button to choose your photo from your device (JPG, PNG, WebP, etc.).
  • Drag and Drop: Drag the image directly from your folder into the designated upload area.

Once uploaded, your image will be displayed in the main preview canvas.

2. Pick a Color from the Image

The uploaded image becomes a live sampling area. Simply interact with the image to pick the color you need.

Color Sampling:

  • Click to Sample: Click (or tap on mobile) any pixel on the image. The exact color of that pixel will be registered.
  • Live Zoom (Optional): Your tool may provide a magnified view (loupe) near your cursor to ensure pixel-perfect selection.

3. View and Copy Color Codes

The tool instantly translates the sampled color into the most common digital formats.

Code Details:

  • HEX Code: The standard web format (e.g., **#4a90e2**).
  • RGB Code: The red, green, blue breakdown (e.g., **rgb(74, 144, 226)**).
  • HSL Code: Hue, saturation, lightness value (e.g., **hsl(214, 69%, 59%)**).
  • Use the adjacent **"Copy"** button to quickly save the desired code format to your clipboard.

4. Generate a Color Palette (Optional)

If you need more than one color, the tool may allow you to save multiple sampled colors or extract a dominant palette.

  • Click **"Add to Palette"** after sampling a color.
  • Continue clicking different spots to build a collection of colors from your photo.
  • You can typically download this resulting color palette as a swatch image (PNG) or a list of codes (text file).
