Illustration of a photo with an eyedropper tool sampling a pixel, and HEX, RGB, and HSL color swatches

Color Picker

Upload an image, then click anywhere on it to read that pixel's exact color. Picking happens entirely in your browser — nothing is re-uploaded per click.

Drag & drop an image here, or

ℹ️ How this works
  • The image is drawn onto a canvas at its full original resolution — every click samples the real pixel, not a scaled-down approximation.
  • Color reading happens with plain browser JavaScript (getImageData) — the image is never re-sent to the server per click, so picking is instant and works offline once loaded.
  • A single copy of the image you upload is sent to an internal log for abuse monitoring (like our other image tools), capped at 10 images per hour per visitor — picking colors from an image already in your browser is never affected by that limit.
💻 Show API usage example (cURL) 
curl -sS -X POST https://devops.majbase.com/color-picker/api \
    -F "file=@photo.jpg" -F "x=120" -F "y=80"

Returns JSON: {"x": 120, "y": 80, "hex": "#RRGGBB", "rgb": {"r":0,"g":0,"b":0}, "hsl": {"h":0,"s":0,"l":0}} — out-of-range x/y are clamped to the image bounds, same as clicking past the edge of the picker on this page.
