Image Colour Picker

Click anywhere on a picture to get its exact colour as HEX, RGB and HSL, with a magnifier for precise picks. The main colours of the image are found for you as a ready-made palette.

Find the exact colour in a picture

Matching a brand colour from a logo, a shade from a photo or a colour from a website screenshot is guesswork by eye. This picker reads the exact value of the pixel you click and gives it to you in the formats designers and developers use.

Colour codes explained

How to pick a colour

  1. Drop, choose or paste an image.
  2. Move over the picture — the magnifier shows the pixels under the pointer.
  3. Click to pick. The HEX code is copied straight away, and the colour is kept in your Picked list.
  4. Use the main colours found automatically to build a palette from a photo.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get the HEX code of a colour in a logo?

Drop the logo here and click on the colour. The HEX code is copied to your clipboard.

Can I pick a colour from my screen, outside the browser?

In Chrome and Edge on a computer, use “Pick from the screen” to pick from anywhere on your display.

Why is the colour slightly different from the original design?

JPG compression and screenshots can shift colours a little. Pick from the centre of a flat area, or use a PNG of the original.
