Want to generate a color scheme from an image—like your site logo or favorite photo? Many WordPress themes, including Memberlite, let you apply a color scheme that matches your brand. TinEye’s Color Extraction Tool makes it easy.
Use the Color Extraction Tool From TinEye to Generate a Color Scheme
Color extraction is a TinEye Lab tool powered by MulticolorEngine. Using this tool is simple: upload an image (your logo) and the tool identifies the dominant HEX colors. TinEye makes it easy to generate a color scheme from image sources, helping you pull colors directly from visual branding. Try the color extractor even if you don’t have a logo—stock photos can help you generate a meaningful and cohesive color scheme. The tool shows you which colors are used in the image’s palette, as well as some suggested color schemes that introduce complementary colors.
Memberlite has several customization options for the color scheme. Memberlite defines the main colors used on your site as “Primary”, “Secondary”, and “Action”. Below are some guidelines for assigning your color scheme to these fields:
Primary
The “Primary” color is most widely used throughout the site: for headings, every page’s masthead background and the footer widget area background.
Choose the most dominant and visually pleasing color from your logo or image to serve as the primary color in your image-based color scheme.
Secondary
Your “Secondary” color should complement the “Primary” color but be different enough to create contrast. This is the second most dominant color in your image. It should contrast your primary color, but not draw too much attention.
Action
Use a vibrant, bright color for your “Action” setting. In an image-generated color scheme, it should pop without clashing. This color is used for buttons and highlight areas—so it needs to draw the eye’s attention and encourage clicks!
Use this color sparingly to create maximum impact when you select it with intention.
I hope the Color Extractor from TinEye helps you extract the color scheme from your logo. You may not have a site logo, but if you have a photo or stock image that really speaks to your membership site’s message, give it a try in the image analyzer. With a little creativity, you can generate a color scheme from an image that perfectly matches your membership site’s look and feel.
