Ubuntu / Linux news and application reviews.


Ever browsed a webpage and you wanted to know the code for a certain color? ColorZilla, a Firefox addon has a color picker, eyedropper and many other features. The eyedropper tool, my favourite, can get the color of any pixel displayed in a browser window. Other features include:

-The color picker is similar to the one found in Photoshop,
-Palette viewer and editor fully compatible with GIMP,
-Zoom options for easy picking colors,
-Online palette viewer - you can use it to share colors,
-Auto-copy generated or sample colors in HEX, CSS RGB and other formats.

And of course, it works on any OS that Firefox does (Windows, Linux, MacOS)
