Color palette generator

The colors in your photos already say a lot about your style. Using the same few colors across your Linktree, posts and thumbnails makes everything you share look like it belongs together.

Upload a photo and the generator picks out its main colors. Choose how many you want, shuffle for a different mix, then copy one hex code or all of them.

Picking a photo for your palette

Start with a photo that already feels like you, such as your best-performing post, a product shot or your profile picture. Photos with a few clear areas of color give the cleanest palettes.

Busy photos with lots of small details can give muddier colors. If that happens, try Shuffle or a simpler photo.

Using your palette on Linktree

Use your darkest color for text and your lightest for the background, so everything stays easy to read. Save a bright color for buttons, since that's where you want people to tap.
