3 Sites that Make Color Palettes from Photos

Stand Out

Want to make a cute pinnable or quotable for your Facebook page that really stands out? Having a color palette that matches your photo or graphic is one way to make it all come together in a cohesive way.

Identify Your Colors

Here are three sites that will help you identify colors in your image so you can use them to create a totally together image.
Pictaculous
Colr.org
CSS Drive Color Palette Generator

How To

At each site you simply upload your photo and you’ll get #hex codes for a matching color palette. Then you can use those color codes in PicMonkey, Photoshop, or other photo editing software to create beautiful color coordinated graphics.
