Create or Find Color Palettes from Images
Ever looked at a picture and wish you could grab the HTML color codes for the specific picture in question? Perhaps it has a really interesting orange or red you would really like to use in your layout. Maybe you should try Color Hunter.
This web site allows you to search for pictures, color palettes, or upload your own photos so you can find the hidden color codes within. Once you find one you like, you can toggle it between vibrant bold colors or dull softer colors.
Where do the images come from?
When you search for color palettes by tag, ColorHunter.com searches Flickr.com via Flickr’s API for images labeled with the tag you entered. The thumbnails of the Flickr images are used to create a color palette. ColorHunter.com uses the Flickr API but is not endorsed or certified by Flickr.
If you sign up, via ColorHunter.com you can also keep a running list of your favorite color palettes. This is a really great and unique way to hunt down the color codes you need for your next web site redesign.
