    Hi all,

    How do I obtain the colour code (in say RGB or HEX) of any area I pinpoint on an image on a webpage?

    I heard that there is a colour match facility in photoshop but I cant find it....

    Thanks guys

    I'd (2) the recommendation to use ColorZilla. It's very easy to use and was good to me for years.

    You could download the image and use the 'Eyedrop Tool' in a photo editing program (eg. Photoshop).
