- Rated 5 out of 5by csnodgr2, 7 years agoI've been using this plugin for a couple years and it's helped tremendously to get colors I want to use in my web and graphic designs. Recently an update changed how the add-on worked and I couldn't get it to work at all. I emailed Alex and he quickly responded, we discovered the issue was my retina iMac. He fixed the issue with the latest version, thank you!
- Rated 3 out of 5by SamEM, 7 years agoI LOVED ColorZilla - allowed you to pick out any color (RGB, CMYK, HEX) on the web - a great tool for designers & developers, or someone who just wants the exact color they see elsewhere. HOWEVER, with the add-on update i received today, the dropdown menu on the browser for this add-on is completely different. It looks older than the previous version. Previous version had copys readily available right there in the dropdown whether you needed hex or RGB. I would have given the previous version of ColorZilla 5 stars, but because this version seems to have rolled back the hands of time in design & function, I'm giving it a 3
- Rated 2 out of 5by schelly-1364607647.84, 7 years agoI'm giving 2 stars because before the update it was a 5 star add-on. If a quickly-deployed new update comes out to fix the add-on, I'll change my review to 5 stars. But if you have an add-on that doesn't do what it's advertised to do... the stars have got to go away.
- Rated 1 out of 5by CanIregisterThisTime, 7 years agoThis morning I was on a conference call, reading something from a webpage to a client. Suddendly, mid-sentence, ColorZilla decides it wants me to read them "Colorzilla Updated" instead. I wasn't standing next to my computer, so it sat there for several seconds before I was able to continue doing what I was doing. It made me look unprofessional in front of clients and my boss. All this for an addon I've had on my machine for less than 48 hours and have used ONCE (worked fine, at least). Will uninstall.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 7006704, 7 years agoThis is a fantastic tool I use all the time when working on my websites and projects. If you deal with color, install this. I wish it ran in windows' system tray so i could use it anywhere.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12874092, 7 years agoStopped working at all with the new version, impossible to download earlier version, forced me to look for older version on a lot of sites you never know about

Honestly, once I thought that color sampler from web developer tools is enough and I can remove this add-on, so naive of me.
- Rated 5 out of 5by elrubio, 7 years agoMuy útil para programadores. Para detectar rápidamente los códigos de colores.
- Rated 4 out of 5by theBambam, 7 years agoBeen using this for years. Not sure why so many are having issues with the latest versions ... but it's definitely not as snappy and 'poignant' as it used to be. Regardless, I'm quite confident the author is doing his best to make it better and better and ... . So thank you for all your efforts!
- Rated 3 out of 5by Clay Ravin, 7 years agoDamn, used to be really useful (hence not just 1 star), and simple. Cannot get this new version with its unnecessary added features to work. If you want to keep your 4 star rating in Add-ons I advise fixing it as soon as possible.

The 2017 releases have been absolutely terrible. I have rolled back to the last 2015 release.

Now it's a pile of rubbish. Doesn't record the colour I click on more than 2/3 of the time, records the wrong colour, laggy and slow to respond. Menu options were changed so can no longer copy RGB from first dropdown.... and Copy RGB from the new secondary menu just flat out doesn't work.
What an embarrassment!
Now I'm using Color Picker and recommend everyone to switch to that, it's light, accurate and does exactly what it needs to. - Rated 1 out of 5by Victor Scopel, 7 years agoThis was a very good extension, with the new update it's the worst eyedropper.
- Rated 1 out of 5by DBH Engine, 7 years agoDon't know how to revert, but I do know how to uninstall. This add-on is now like a boat that refuses to float.
- Rated 1 out of 5by rickster, 7 years agoI had to revert back to version 2.8.2 and turn off auto updates, v3 I found totally unusable, please revert back to the earlier interface, I promise I'll donate!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Dario Pintaric, 7 years agoMuch slower then the previous version, color picking from local images do not work anymore..
It says "Click to Allow access to file URLs" but nothing happens on click... The black bar that appears after u get the color picker is not fixed - it offests the web page for the height of the bar.... It used to be one click picker, now there's a n extra click... All in all, i think I'm rolling back to previous version - the new one doesnt live up to it's name.... - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12841967, 7 years agoTodo funcionaba bien hasta que decidieron actualizarla, ya no funciona para archivos locales y se supone es una herramienta para diseñadores.
eliminada por se obsoleta, no la instalen ! - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 12839971, 7 years ago1) Page Slide down is realy stuppid thing. Its make me crazy.
Please make Options for disable this.
2) 2 click for copy code to clipboard. i want 1 click. - Rated 1 out of 5by CathG, 7 years agoOh no! I often want the rgb value (because I use rgba) and it's gone. PLEASE put it back the way it was
- Rated 1 out of 5by Luis, 7 years agoI have been using this tool for years and I even recommended with my users and clients. Now I will start the process of doing the contrary. The new update and interface change made this tool bad, really BAD...
