Have you ever had a picture that you just loved the colors in? Well there is a super easy way in Photoshop and Elements to get an indexed color chart from your photo.
First, open your new photo.
Then in the menu bar -> Image -> Mode -> Index Color. A box will pop up. Click “ok”.
Go BACK to Image -> Mode -> Color Table
There you have it! A color table will all the colors from your photo! You can now use your color picker to make a swatch or find colors to re-color elements to match your picture. Have fun!

This is so cool (and easy)! I use Photoshop CS5 and had no idea this was there! Isn’t Photoshop just the “toy” that keeps on giving??? Thanks for sharing this great tip, Steph!

Thank you for that tidbit of info. I am learning PSE10.
