Editors' review
This handy add-on for the Firefox browser enthusiast adds an array of color-matching and color-picking tools to your Firefox status bar. ColorZilla's eyedropper icon leads to a menu of many options, including finding the code of a selected Web page color, creating a custom palette, and zooming in on a page. Or you can just click on the screen anywhere to find the Hex value of a color. One drawback: the program promises to measure distances between items on a Web page, but our testers had difficulty implementing that feature. Web designers and any user looking for an easy zoom or quick color picker will love this freeware add-on to Firefox.
