## Overview (en)

Color palette generator finds the dominant colors in an image and lists them as HEX codes with swatches. You choose between 2 and 16 colors. The image is reduced to a small preview, similar shades are grouped, and the most common groups are averaged into palette colors. The palette can be downloaded as palette.txt.

## Questions (en)

### How does the color palette generator pick colors?

It shrinks the image to fit 120 by 120 pixels, groups pixels into coarse color buckets and ranks the buckets by how many pixels they contain. Each palette color is the average of one of the largest buckets.

### Are transparent areas included in the palette?

No. Pixels that are more than half transparent are skipped, so a logo on a transparent background returns the colors of the logo itself rather than colors from the empty areas.

### Why does my palette have fewer colors than I asked for?

The tool can return only as many colors as distinct color buckets it finds. A simple graphic with a few flat colors can produce fewer swatches than the requested count.

### Where is my input processed?
