Frequently Asked Questions
The tool outputs three standard colour formats: HEX (e.g. #3A7BF5), RGB (e.g. rgb(58, 123, 245)), and HSL (e.g. hsl(218, 90%, 59%)). All three formats are commonly used in web design, CSS, and digital design tools.
HEX (hexadecimal) is the most common colour format in web development. It represents red, green, and blue values as pairs of hexadecimal digits prefixed with #. CSS, HTML, and most design tools accept HEX values directly. Example: #FF5733.
RGB stands for Red, Green, Blue. It represents colour as three values between 0 and 255. It is used widely in CSS (rgb(255, 87, 51)), image editing software, and screen based design work. RGB is additive combining all three at maximum produces white.
HSL stands for Hue, Saturation, and Lightness. It is more intuitive to work with than RGB for making colour adjustments. Hue is the colour angle (0 360°), Saturation is the colour purity (0 100%), and Lightness is brightness (0 100%). HSL is supported directly in CSS and is particularly useful for generating consistent colour palettes.
Yes. Upload a logo image or screenshot and click on any colour you want to identify. This is a common workflow for matching brand colours accurately when recreating a design, setting up a CSS theme, or documenting a visual style guide.
The tool is a pixel level picker it reads the colour of the specific pixel you click or hover over. It does not automatically extract a palette of dominant colours. For manual colour research, click on the areas of the image that matter most.
Colours in photographs are blended at a pixel level. A pixel that appears a specific colour to the eye may contain adjacent pixels of different colours that mix visually. Zoom into the image or click in a flat colour area to get the most accurate reading.
Yes. Any image format your browser can display is accepted JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, and HEIC on compatible browsers.
The tool reads pixel values from the display screen representation of your image. For JPEG images, there may be very slight colour variation due to JPEG's lossy compression affecting pixel values. For PNG and WebP (lossless), values are exact.
Yes. Clicking on the displayed colour value or the copy button copies the HEX, RGB, or HSL value to your clipboard, ready to paste into your code editor or design application.
