Find Color Codes

Image Color Picker

Upload an image and pull the exact color out of any pixel.

Three steps

How to use it

  1. 1

    Add an image

    Drag a file onto the drop zone, click to browse, or paste from the clipboard with Ctrl/Cmd+V. PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF and SVG all work.

  2. 2

    Click the pixel you want

    The magnifier follows your cursor and shows a pixel grid. Click to lock the reading; the full code set appears beside it.

  3. 3

    Or take the whole palette

    Extract palette samples the image and returns its dominant colors, each one copy-ready.

About this tool

Picking a color out of an image is the one task on this site that a text answer genuinely cannot do. The pixel data has to be read, and it has to be read in the browser to avoid uploading someone's private screenshot to a server.

One caveat worth knowing: JPEG compression alters color. It works by throwing away color detail the eye is bad at noticing, so a flat brand color sampled from a JPEG can come back a few points off. If you are trying to recover an exact brand hex, sample from a PNG or SVG if one exists. Or check whether the brand is already on this site with its published value.
