Color Picker Chrome Eyedropper Tool · Tutorial And Review

Hello,

Have you ever needed to copy a color from a webpage and use that for your web page? 

Or your blog or whatever you have got online or maybe even in your PowerPoint presentation?

Well, you might want to use the color you see and you like it and then you would like to know what is this specific color. What is the RGB code or what is the HEX-code? And usually, it’s very difficult to find out what the exact color code is. 

Unless you are a developer and you use Google F12 inspections or something like that. Where you can see in the CSS code what the exact color is. 

If you’re not that kind of developer this tool is for you.

Hi, my name is Olaf, and I am your ToolFinderr. 

And today I’m going to talk to you about Eye Dropper, a fancy Chrome extension. So already here on the home page on my presentation, we will see three screenshots of what the Chrome extension is. 

So, at first, it’s an Eyedropper: you can pick a color from a webpage as you can see over here. And all the colors that I picked are stored in the last, I don’t know how many. These are items in my default palette.

And if you click on one of those colors you immediately will see what the color is. So, the selected one that was on the page and the one that I picked last. And another option is the color picker. Where you can easily pick colors using this palette. 

And the third image you can see for example, when I hover over this bluish color. It will show right down on my screen exactly what the HEX color is or what the RGB color is. 

Now let’s dive further into this Chrome extension.

In my past, I used to develop WordPress websites for clients as well. So, when I bought a WordPress theme with a standard color scheme it needed to be adjusted to the colors of the client.

For example:

And that’s when this extension came in very handy as well. Also, when designing PowerPoint presentations like this one, you will sometimes need specific colors or you want a specific color like this. 

Let’s say this purple over here and then you could add this purple to your color palette. And pick it every time you want.
