PixelGrabber is a very small and simple program that can find the color value for any pixel on the screen, and copy it to the clipboard. According to their site, "PixelGrabber shows RGB and HEX value of any pixel on screen in real-time. Simply move the mouse pointer to any pixel on screen in any program and immediately get the color values. Easily copy value to clipboard. Useful to Web site designers and graphic designers." I'm sure all of the web designers out there have their favorite method of acquiring onscreen color values. Post your alternative ideas to the comments!

This sounds pretty good -- will have to check it out.
My current method is printscreen / paste into Photoshop / eyedropper. Which aint bad if PS is already open.

Works like a charm.
Paid 10 bucks for it and that made the annoying "UNREGISTERED VERSION" dissappear.
Well worth the money :-)
