Pin color palette generator
Pins look polished when the text and accent colors match the photo. Upload a photo to pull out its six main colors, or enter one brand color to get a matching set (complementary, triadic, analogous or monochrome). Tap any swatch to copy its hex code.
How to use the pin color palette generator
- Upload the photo you will use on the pin, or type a hex color.
- Press Get palette.
- Tap a swatch to copy its code, then use it in the pin template designer.
Which palette to use
- From a photo: the best choice when the pin has a photo. Use a dark color from the palette for text and a bright one for accents.
- Analogous: neighbouring colors, calm and cohesive.
- Complementary: opposite colors, high contrast for buttons and highlights.
- Triadic: three evenly spaced colors, playful and bold.
- Monochrome: shades of one color, elegant and simple.

Questions
How are photo colors picked?
The tool shrinks the photo and groups similar pixels together (a method called k-means), then shows the six biggest groups.
Can I save a palette?
Copy the hex codes into a note or your brand file. Nothing is stored on the site.
