The short version

What is Color Picker from Image?

A color picker from image tool reads color values from a photo, screenshot, or design preview.

Click a point to get its HEX, RGB, and HSL values, or extract a set of representative colors. SlapMyWeb renders the selected image on a canvas in your browser and reads the displayed canvas pixel. For performance, images are scaled down when either side is larger than 1200 pixels, so sampled colors correspond to the preview. Transparent areas are composited over white. You can keep up to 20 picked colors and copy each value. The image is processed locally and is not uploaded to a server.
