What is Color Palette from Image?
Upload any image and this tool finds the most dominant colors using k-means clustering on the pixel data. Results include hex codes, RGB, and HSL values with the percentage each color occupies. Adjust the number of colors (3-12) and sampling resolution to balance speed vs accuracy.
FAQ
- How are the colors extracted?
- We use k-means clustering — an algorithm that groups all pixels into the requested number of clusters by color similarity, then returns the average color of each cluster.
- Is this different from the Color Palette generator?
- Yes — this tool extracts actual colors from an uploaded photo. The Color Palette tool generates harmonies (complementary, triadic, etc.) from a single hex color you pick.
- What does sample resolution do?
- Higher resolution samples more pixels for more accurate results, but takes slightly longer. 100px is fast for most images.
