How does the palette generator pick colors?
It samples the image locally, groups nearby RGB values, and ranks the most frequent buckets so you can lock a production palette.

A practical example
Extract a small palette from the demo
Use a concrete input, inspect the output, and check the current limits before choosing your next step.
Example input
Use the transparent demo sheet and select an eight-color palette target.
What to check
- Choose the demo PNG, then select the palette size.
- Compare the extracted swatches with the character's cloak, skin, outline, boots, and satchel.
- Copy useful HEX values or download the palette strip, then check those colors against your game's backgrounds.
Expected output
A list of frequently sampled RGB color buckets and a PNG swatch strip. Fewer swatches can appear when the source contains fewer sampled color groups.
Current limits
The browser samples a 96 × 96 version and rounds RGB values into buckets. Returned swatches approximate dominant colors; they are not an exact inventory of every original pixel color.

03 / FAQ
Clear terms before you build.
How are colors selected?
The browser samples the image, groups nearby RGB values, and ranks the most frequent color buckets.
Is the original image uploaded?
No. Palette extraction happens locally in your browser.
Can I use the palette for AI generations?
You can copy the HEX values into a prompt or use the downloaded strip as a reference. This utility does not save a project Style Lock or enforce exact colors in AI output.
