Create palette from Image

[BugliL]

The client can apply any palette to any image, what about extracting a palette FROM an image to apply it to another one?

Parse the image and extract the colors? this could create a palette of thousands colors without any filter applied, maybe we can manage to set a confidence parameter to set a distance from a color already take (?)

I guess that we should ask in input also how many colors the palette should have or put some defaults (e.g: 4, 6, 8, 12, 16).
Then we can extract the most recorrent colors or the top averaged color in the image.

Actually I don't know if it would be a good feature expect for starting from an image palette. Do you guys belive that would be helpful to extract a palette from a wallpaper/landscape image?

Sometimes I find on Pinterest or Google some images with colors that i like, I would like to set that image as wallpaper and set my IDE theme and my other wallpapers with that color palette.

Off course the hard work is already done

I can use these tool in separate way or integrate one with the other.

Is this a feature that you'd like to implement ?

[Wabri]

Yes

I think that can be accomplished by take pixel by pixel and take the most recurrent 6(?) or more hexadecimals in the image
