    Hi guys,

    as you know the beloved Adobe Color panel is not available in Photoshop for some time now. Adobe offers a website where you can upload images and extract color themes (https://color.adobe.com/create/image) but honestly, I don't like the fact you need to upload an image to the internet every time to see that.

    I was looking for alternatives over time, but so far couldn't find one which replaces Adobe Color 100% and that allows me to extract color themes from an image and see them on the color wheel (to see color harmony) within Photoshop, instantly and offline.
    I was wondering if you have any suggestions in this regard or if you struggle with the same...

    I have never used it. How many colors do you seek in your palette extraction? NBP colormax can save up to 10 colors...you can save as a preset as well on that panel.

    Yeah NBP I tried and it works pretty well for the extraction part, but it still misses showing them on the color wheel directly, so that you can see how is color harmony of the image.

    Tonality Mask V7 has a nice extraction plus you can choose what harmony you want but I don’t like that it applies it as a gradient map.

    Not really, there's this panel Coolorus which could give you something similar, but unfortunately Adobe Color panel was still better in my opinion...

    I just tried and this could be the best alternative I have tested so far, really thanks for sharing!

    PS for all, for installing just copy-paste folder under <Drive letter>:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CEP\extensions

    Not sure where I got it, but since I saved on my drive, I uploaded it here for whoever needs it.

    Ok I just discovered it here. If anyone else is having issues finding the CEP folder check this:
    C:\Programs Files (x86) \ Common Files \ Adobe \ CEP\ extensions\
    BTW I'm on Windows 11
