Frequently asked questions
What image formats are supported?+
You can upload PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, BMP, and SVG files. The tool reads the pixel data from whichever format your browser can render.
How many colors does it extract?+
By default it extracts the 6 most dominant colors. You can adjust the count to get more or fewer colors depending on your needs.
Is my image uploaded to a server?+
No. The image is processed entirely in your browser using a canvas element. Your file never leaves your device and no data is transmitted.
How does the extraction algorithm work?+
It uses a color quantization method that groups similar pixel colors together and selects the most representative color from each cluster, weighted by how many pixels it contains.
Can I extract colors from a screenshot?+
Yes. Take a screenshot, save it as an image file, and upload it. The tool works with any valid image regardless of how it was created.
