Quickly Grab Hex Numbers with Absolute Color Picker

[ Windows Only ]

This is a great little utility program that can determine hexidecimal color codes from a web page. Ever visit a site and really liked a background color or font color? Absolute Color Picker will allow you to drag your mouse over a color and grab its hexidecimal number!

Simply launch this utility, click in the white box in the lower right-hand corner, hold down your mouse, and drag it to a color on a web page. Release the mouse, and you’ll see the hex code in the white text box. You can store colors in the boxes to the left.

Full features list:
  • History of selected colors – up to 12 slots to save the color in
  • Screen eye-dropper – pick any color directly from screen
  • HTML color conversion
  • Customizable color selection dialogs: select only hose color models that are convenient for you
  • Many predefined color palettes
  • Compare current and previous color
  • Customize brightness, hue, saturation and other parameters separately to match your exact selection

This is a great utility for web designers and web developers who work a LOT with hexidecimal color codes and need to convert them to HTML format. I’ve been using this a LOT lately. A really good time saver.
