Tips for image palettes
- Crop to the subject first (in your photos app) so backgrounds do not dominate the sample.
- Bright neon UIs often need a hand-tuned accent — extract a base, then refine in the studio.
- Check text contrast on extracted darks/lights with the contrast checker.
- This is a lightweight average/quantize sampler — not a full k-means design system. Five to eight swatches is typical.
FAQ
Does my image leave this device?
No. Processing uses an on-page canvas only. There is no server upload.
Why do results look muddy?
Busy photos blend many hues. Crop tighter or use higher-contrast subjects, then hand-tune in the studio.
How many colors are extracted?
Up to six distinct swatches after a simple quantize-and-diversify pass.
