Color Picker - Free Online Tool | PivaBox

Pick colors from images and get HEX, RGB, HSL values

Color Picker — Pick and Extract Colors from Images Online

Upload an image to the color picker. The tool loads your image onto an interactive canvas where you can zoom and hover over any pixel to see its exact color value in real time.
Click any point on the image to capture that color. The tool displays the color value simultaneously in multiple formats: HEX (#RRGGBB), RGB (rgb(r, g, b)), HSL (hsl(h, s%, l%)), and HSV. A color preview swatch shows the picked color at full size.
Copy the color code in your preferred format and use it in your designs, CSS, branding materials, or any creative project. Pick multiple colors to build a palette from any image — useful for extracting brand colors from logos or creating complementary palettes from photographs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Color Picker free?

Yes, completely free. Pick colors from unlimited images with no watermarks or restrictions.

Are my images uploaded anywhere?

No. All color extraction happens locally in your browser using Canvas pixel manipulation. Your images never leave your device.

What color formats do designers need and how do I use picked colors in my projects?

Different tools and contexts require different color formats: (1) HEX (#3B82F6) — the standard for CSS, HTML, and web design; use 6-digit hex for full color, 3-digit shorthand (#3BF) for simple cases. (2) RGB — used in CSS rgba() functions when you need alpha transparency, and in most design tools like Figma and Sketch. (3) HSL — more intuitive for humans: hue (the color on a 0–360° wheel), saturation (0% gray to 100% vivid), lightness (0% black to 100% white). Designers often prefer HSL because adjusting saturation and lightness feels more natural than tweaking RGB channels. (4) HSV/HSB — similar to HSL but brightness is measured differently; used in Photoshop's color picker. Pro tip: use the color picker to extract a brand's exact colors from their logo or website screenshot, then build a consistent palette around those foundation colors.
