Do you ever see a picture and love the colors? This tool picks out the main colors in a picture. I'm thinking a person could print out the page and take it to the store to choose fabric similar to the colors.

A url is a site address. The thing you clicked on to go to the color matching site is a URL: http://www.degraeve.com/color-palette/

To use it, you would copy the url from the address bar at the top of your screen when you are on a page where you like the picture. To do that, scroll over it until it is highlighted, then right click your mouse and choose "copy". Then go to the Color Palette site and paste that URL in the space below "URL of Image" To do that click in that space, right click your mouse and choose "paste".

Then click the button below it "color-palette-fy"
