Hi,

I know I can use the eyedropper to select a color.

Is there a way to also use it to select a color from something on a webpage or from the Benjamin Moore color pallet?

Select the eyedropper. click anywhere inside Photoshop and hold the mouse button down. Now drag the mouse over the page you want to pick color from and..... Enjoy!

Firefox has an add-on called Colorzilla which allows you to put an eyedropper anywhere on a webpage and get the RGB value of that color.

Good one, Cyan, I didn't know the eyedropper worked outside Photoshop!
