Pick Color From Downloaded Image

[Earl T]

Is it possible to have a web browser pick a color from an image on a
web page? I am not interested in creating an image map but just
reading the colors directly from the screen.

No, the browser can't do this but there are tons of 'colour pickers'
out there on the net. I use SLUGS http://www.opensourcepan.co.uk

I wrote a script which picks colors by clicking on a color wheel It
changes the background to the chosen color and shows the RGB values.
The source is well documented.

Choose the "Colors" link on the right.
