How do I find the HEX color code of a specific pixel in an image?

Upload your image and hover over the desired area. The magnifying loupe displays the exact pixel color, and clicking it copies the HEX code (#RRGGBB) directly.

What color code formats are supported?

The color picker extracts HEX, RGB, RGBA, HSL, HSV, and CMYK color values simultaneously.

Can I save a palette of multiple colors sampled from the image?

Yes. Each color you click is saved to your session palette history, which you can export as CSS variables or color codes.

Can I paste an image directly from my clipboard?

Yes. Press Ctrl+V (or Cmd+V) to paste any screenshot or copied image directly into the eyedropper.

Does the color picker work on mobile touchscreens?

Yes. Drag your finger across the image to move the touch loupe, and release to lock the selected color.

How do I get the RGB, HSL, and CMYK values of an image color?

Click on any pixel in your uploaded image. The inspector displays real-time color values in HEX (#RRGGBB), RGB (rgb(r,g,b)), HSL (hsl(h,s,%,l%)), and print-safe CMYK percentages with one-click copy buttons.

Can I zoom in with a pixel magnifier to pick exact 1-pixel color details?

Yes. Hovering over the image activates a 5x pixel loupe magnifier with coordinate crosshairs, allowing you to sample fine borders, subtle shadows, and tiny icon pixels accurately.
