Hello Jesse!

Thank you for sharing your list of Chrome Extensions
(https://gist.github.com/taeram/4666661).

Could you please take a look at my new "Extract Colors DevTool" at:
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/extract-colors-devtool/nfliekkcalinkhldnlpjgfigimdngchm

It offers the following functionalities:

  • Color picker
  • Color palette extractor (hex, rgb, css custom variables)
  • Clearing Cache
  • Cleaning page (removes ads)
  • Full-page screenshot
  • Window resizer
  • Make page content editable

I would appreciate it if you could consider adding my "Extract Colors DevTool" to your list.

Thank you and best regards,

Marc
