dropper
I thought this was a dropper where I could extract color from one part of the screen and apply it to another. I was disappointed t find that it was of no use to me. Sorry.

I think it`s great but...
Price should be cheaper. But I think that it's great that you can grab any image and move around several points, infinite times to grab what you want.

I would say also, that it would be great --- at least I didn't find it yet --- to have a direct output if only the color palette, so that it can be imported directly to photoshop or just saved as a .jpeg.

If this tool exist, I would like to know how I can find it.

Thanks!

Simplifies Color Codes.
I use the Absolute Color Picker to pick up the color values for my web-graphics designs. I pick up the color from other pages, and can then enter them as HEX code color in my CSS to achive unifromity of color tones.
Its a pity that whenever you click APPLY, the program closes, and you have to restart the program.

This color picker needs work
I am only reviewing the free version, so if features available in the paid version differ, this review does not apply.
The interface design is very good. The eyedropper tool works very well, and is more of a snapshot of the area selected - which helps you see what pixels you're selecting - very good unique feature.
The options are very good as well, because being able to switch between different color charts helping to perfect your color - good tool for desaturating colors.
The problems I had with this tool render is almost unusable for anything other than generating a color code to input into another program, for example I can generate a color, and then input the corresponding RGB or HSB number into the source code of a web page - but I cannot save the color any way. I think users should be able to save their color files as a gif or jpeg background or color swatch and then input that into a paint/photo program.
Pressing the "Apply" button also shuts the program down - making the user reopen the program to review applied colors - not very handy.

Color Identification
Since I am color blind I was actually looking for a program to tell me what color I sample. Not only waht its technical features are (RGB etc) but also what is the color's NAME. The are products that do that, so the technology exists, but none of them is software based.
Thanks

Great program, but it's a little puzzling. I can't figure out how to generate color schemes.
