Click anywhere on the canvas to keep the colour value here (above) ⬆️
Hover over the canvas to see the colour value.
How to Use
- We can paste image from the clipboard to the canvas. Before pasting (CTRL + V) it, please click anywhere on this page first.
- We can also use an image file from local drive. To do that, we can either click
Choose Filebutton to pick an image, or simply drag and drop the image file to this page. - Once the image is placed on the canvas, we can hover the mouse cursor over the image. The colour of that particular pixel will be shown while we're hovering. Hm. 🤔
- Once we spot the colour we're interested in, we need to click it so the colour code will be kept on the bottom table.
- The HEX and RGB colour codes can be selected and automatically copied to the clipboard once they're clicked.
Background
Sometimes, we saw a proper good image with interesting colour in it. This tool can detect that particular colour.
If!
We bring the image here.
Unfortunately, this tool cannot directly access our mind. That would be "a privacy breach".
If!
There's no button to manually activate that ➡️ options to confine the mind-wave tracer to just that specific territory.
🤔
✅ No image data is sent to anywhere else except locally to your browser. I merely wrote the conduction spells here.
Conduction, activate!
Oh hang on, that won't work.
I need to wiggle the wand and chant the Arcane-Latin-Appliance grammar —
Petrificus Totalus Kettlus Boilus Activatus! 🪄✨
Anyway, "sniffing" is related to odour sensing, which is done by the nose. This is vision related. Let us ponder for about two seconds and then distract our thoughts with this magnificent image below.
Visioscopus Revela! 🪄✨
⬆️ Right. Fantastic.
Anyway, let's move on. This bit below is NOT directly related to the application, but rather, related to English.
CLR
The word "colour".
Or —
Thus —
"Colour" was first introduced by the Normans (Norman conquest) — Old French.
"Introduced" — with BLADES ⚔️ — most likely.
Before that, Old English (Anglo-Saxon) used hīew or blæcnes for shade or hue. The Old French got it from Latin "color".
And then there was Noah Webster.
He reckoned spelling should reflect pronunciation and be simplified.
Hence, "color". Which coincidentally is the root, Latin "color".
The timeline goes as follows:
(Void. 🧘) ➡️ COLOR (Latin — Roman) ➡️ COLOUR (Old French — Norman) ➡️ COLOUR (English — since around 12th century, spelling "stuck") ➡️ COLOR (US — 19th century)
Similar to the word —
odour.
From Latin "odor". Chronology goes exactly like above. And the US said they're the New Rome. Sounds like a supermarket. Well indeed, SUPER MARKET. Not merely that large convenience store.
Anyhow, did you notice the bit from those two words?
Webster didn't bloody care about Latin, he was being efficient — very Anglo-Saxon, in a different land which subsconsciously demanded it.
And what do you know? The loop. The cycle. The cosmic jest.
English is utterly comical, I just need to put it here. This is merely the tip of the tip of the tip of an iceberg's tip. And we have IELTS and TOEFL.
Oi, you blimey talk to bacon can't?
⬆️ TOEFL scored 3,000.
Now I off am self to confuse.
⬆️ Score is increased.
IELTS Band 33.
TOEFL threw the clipboard and walked out.
No more of that IELTS' 3.0–3.5 — extremely limited.
It's limited for them to comprehend.
Another increase, Band 37.
We've entered the forbidden realm now. ⬇️
Foul is fair, and fair is foul. The king he did slay. 👏👏
A German should respond — NEIN. Sie haben die Syntax vertauscht. Nicht akzeptabel.
Aye, sir. Revision — "There is moral inversion. Also, he murdered the king."
Gut.
PTTR
Since I started with Arcane-Latin-Appliance grammar, let's continue the derailment to Pttr.
Pttr is all the consonants of "Potter", first name "Harry".
Indeed, the spells in that lore are based on Latin, not Mandarin or even the Khoe language. Because Hogwarts looks like a modified Roman building, the interior, exterior — can't simply jump to another language once they set up every background as Roman's. — Oh, let's make them speak dolphin. — The audience would not read the subtitles. — Hermione! Oook oook eek! EEK?! 🐬 (A long subtitle here. Displayed for more than 10 seconds.) — The coherency would be reduced by 97%.
Anyway. So.
Imagine if Potter did the opposite of that theatrical balderdash.
Instead of uttering that denim brand —
Wind guardian Levi's, oh... that!
He uttered —
Hello. Do my bidding, peasant.
⬆️ Just a vague, flat-toned command without an expression.
Everywhere. Tesco, McDonald's, the playground, the Hogwarts, bedroom, library, lavatory. Every-bloody-where.
EXAMPLE. ⬇️
(In the lavatory. Alone. Sits down.)
Hello. Do my bidding, peasant.
(Looking down.)
At least he said the flat hello, that's sort of a proper courtesy. Until the next fragment arrives.
ANOTHER EXAMPLE. ⬇️
(At the playground.)
Hey four eyes, what's your name?
Hello.
Hello, eight minces. So? What is it?
Do my bidding, peasant.
Yes my lord, it shall be done. But Your Majesty, what is thy bidding?
Hello.
Right.
English "Harry" is a nickname for "Henry" or "Harold" — unless J K Rowling had another idea.
Let's settle on "Harold", since it is older in root.
Thus.
Harøld Pōttêr.
Mind the macron over the "o". Slowly. While a storm brews. He's conducting audits in thunder. Eternaly compiling. Malfunctioning in real time.
The Danes built LEGO, gave us pastries, and THIS is how I repay them. Harøld. Because we've been pronouncing it Scandinavian this whole time and didn't even realise it.
"Harold" = Harøld.
"Potter" = Pōttêr.
The Pōttêr — we need to restrain the "o". The umlaut makes it bow down and behave itself.
