screen shot Have you ever needed a color value in numerical form, but the dang software you're using:

- makes you type it in by hand
- shows it in the wrong format
- doesn't show it at all
- won't let you pick colors
  outside its own windows

Well? Have you?

If so, you'll want ColorGrab, which suffers from none of these apocalyptic calamities.

Just click the text format you like, point to the pixel you're after, and copy its formatted numerical value to the clipboard!

Life is good...
