- It supports various image file format: .PNG, .GIF, .JPG and JPEG
- Instantly generates Photoshop swatches (.ACO) and CSS stylesheet (.CSS) as you can download these files for further design process.
- Click on one of the color on the palette will show you the Hex code of that related color. You can compare between the Selected color and the Current color, as the Current color swatch will dynamically changes the color and hexa when your cursor is moving on the color palette.
- It produces 4 different palettes for efficient use of extracted colors, which are: Light Color Palette, Medium Color Palette, Dark Color Palette and Complete Color Palette.

Twelve-year-old Max Wallack of Natick spent a day last week being followed around by television cameras, hanging out with engineers and building a model of his latest invention: A shelter for the homeless made from plastic, wire and packing peanuts.
The folks at the WGBH show "Design Squad" selected Wallack's idea from more than 1,000 entries for their Trash to Treasure contest. As the grand prize winner, he will receive $10,000 from the Intel Foundation and a laptop computer.
