Often we come across photos and images that inspire us and we want to use their colors in our designs. Sometimes, another person or company created images and branding for us, and we want to keep the cohesive look&feel.
If you ever wondered how you can get those colors right, we have an answer: Color Palette Generators.
We looked into some of the tools that exist today. They work with the same method: you upload an image, submit it, the generator works and you get the colors sampled from the image.
Here is our review:
