    CSS Syntax for get color:
    A CSS rule has two main parts: a selector, and one or more declarations:
    selector mean which one you select heading like......
    {h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6}
    and declarations means it is area which can declare like......
    p
    {
    color:red;
    text-align:center;
    }
    this systax you get the color in css.

    Use one of the tools listed in this thread, or find your own tool using Google. You will need to determine the exact color code using either RGB or Hex.
    Most web developers and designers prefer Hex.

    If you plan to insert the color in your website, here are some options:

    To create an orange image, type the Hex or RGB values for your shade of orange into whatever graphics software you have chosen.

    To place the color into your web pages without a graphic, you can color your text, your text background, a paragraph border, etc.

    To do this, you'll need to insert a CSS rule as WWWSolution has illustrated above. You can replace the word "red" with the hex code, like this:
    color: #ff9900; /* replaces text color */
    background-color: #ff9900; /* will change your background color */

    wiipoints, just post your code and someone will likely show you for free.

    As for the original topic, I have Gimp (which is F-R-E-E) and I either save the image or take a screenshot and then use the dipper thingie to see the number for the colour.

    I *would* use colorZilla except that Firefox has this nasty bug where, on some OSes, it screws with PNG colours, making websites very very ugly (and the colours are then not correct).
    http://hacks.mozilla.org/2009/06/color-correction/

    I don't know if colorZilla ignores this "color correction" or not, but I don't trust it. My own site looks absolutely terrible in Firefox3.5 on Macs and Linux, but luckily it doesn't seem to affect winblows machines.
