FAQ
Does Image Color Extractor upload my image?
No. The implementation is designed for browser-local canvas sampling and must not upload, save, or send the image to an external API.
Is the palette exact?
No. The first version uses approximate pixel sampling and color bucketing, so it is best for quick palette inspection rather than forensic color analysis.
Can I copy individual colors?
Yes. The UI should expose copy actions for HEX, RGB, and HSL values.
