ColorCatcher is a free small but powerful Windows program to extract colors from your screen with the built-in magnifying glass and save them in your own color lists, which are easy to edit.
Furthermore, it is possible to use ColorCatcher as a portable program for example on a USB stick. In this way you can take your color lists with you.

• ColorCatcher can copy colors such as Hex, Decimal, RGB, HSV or Integer value and save the colors to the stack for later use.
• You can create your own color lists by adding, for example, the 15 stack colors or the current color. In the color list editor it is possible to change the color name or replace it with the color value. The order of the list is changeable by drag and drop.
• Via the clipboard (computer memory) it is possible to exchange colors between ColorCatcher and your web designs and vice versa.
