Here is a free tool I've found to be invaluable for working with color...

http://www.etrusoft.com/color-picker/

It gives both the RGB and the #rrggbb values of anything on your screen!

Hi Greg,

Thanks for the link... Unfortunately it does not seem to work. On the color picker home, when I click on the Download Free Version of Quick HTML Color Picker link, it sends me to the other (non-free) tools download page, but Color picker itself is nowhere to be seen.

For picking color from the screen I use and strongly recommend the "colorbox" freeware at http://pourpre.com/colorbox/indexen.php

Sorry about the bum link...

Here it is at download.com.  It really is lightweight and nice, standalone exe.

If my new link is bad, search download.com for Quick HTML Color Picker.

I'll have a look at your recommended app Joseph.  Always interested in another tool.

Greg,
Your new link is OK. Color Picker is a neat little tool. My suggested ColorBox tool is about the same, but more complete.

Your suggested tool is definitely more complete Joseph, If I could but figure out one detail...how do you 'select' a color with it?  So far I have to write down the color setting once I'm hovered over the color I want...

Click on the Eyedropper tool, move to anywhere on the screen to the color you want to capture and click. The color's values are retained in the various boxes, according to your choice of color systems. (French version shown in screen shot below).

Heh heh, thanks Joseph.  I was confused by the fact that the La boite a couleurs window looses focus when you click...and didn't notice that it had, in fact, registered the color when I returned to the dialog box.

Thanks!
