How the Image Color Picker Works

Upload an image, paste from your clipboard, or use the demo image.
Move the cursor over the image and use the magnifier grid to target one pixel.
Click once to lock the picked color.
Copy the HEX, RGB, HSL, CMYK, or another format you need.

After a pick, the page also shows palettes, tints, shades, tones, harmonies, and contrast checks. Screens and compressed files can shift what you see, so sample paint before buying gallons.

If the goal is paint, take the HEX value to the HEX to paint color converter. For a sofa fabric, tile, or inspiration photo, use color match from photo so the picked area can be compared with real paint colors.

Image Color Picker FAQ

How do I pick a color from an image without Photoshop?

Use this free image color picker in your browser. Upload or paste the image, click the color you want, then copy the HEX, RGB, HSL, or CMYK value without opening Photoshop.

Is the picked color exact?

The picked color is exact for the pixel you click. JPEG compression, resize artifacts, and screen calibration can change which pixel looks right, so click the cleanest area and sample paint before committing.

Can I get CMYK for print?

Yes, the tool shows a CMYK conversion for each picked color. Treat it as approximate because print output depends on paper, ink, and your printer profile.

How do I get the exact color from a logo?

Use the highest-resolution logo file you can find, such as a press-kit file or an SVG exported to PNG. Skip screenshots when an original file exists. Click the flat center of a letter or shape because edge pixels blend with the background.

Why is my picked color different from the brand's official hex?

JPEG compression and anti-aliasing shift pixel values, especially near edges. Screenshots carry display color profiles. Official values live on the company's brand page or press page. The picker gets you within a few points when the sample area is clean.
