Eye Dropper is a Chrome extension that makes it super easy to grab a color from any existing website for use in any graphics editing program. In this video I show you how to use the extension and also how you can apply it to a real world scenario.

This is one of those utilities that you can use once a week or 4-5 times a day based on your needs.

As a front-end web developer I end up working with logos and colors on an almost daily basis. Eye Dropper helps when I’m trying to match a specific color on the web to coincide with what I’m doing in Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop.

Using this extension eliminates any guesswork and with just a few clicks you’ve got what you need and you’re on your way. That’s the type of speed and reliability that makes a difference throughout the course of a day.

Eye Dropper can be found on the Chrome Web Store and just like most every extension is a click away from being installed and fully-functional.
