Questions
Is my image uploaded?
No. The picture is read and shrunk in your browser. Nothing is sent anywhere.
How are the colors picked?
The page shrinks the image, groups similar pixels and finds the colors that stand out most. Then it matches each one to the closest of Vista’s 24 folder colors, using each color only once.
Are these Vista’s real colors?
Yes. The folders use Vista’s own 24 folder gradients, so what you see here is what you can pick in the app. Switch to “From your picture” to see the raw colors from your image instead.
How do I use my current wallpaper?
Drop in the wallpaper file, or press ⇧⌘ 3 to take a screenshot of your desktop and drop that in. A screenshot also captures icons and the menu bar, so the file is more accurate.
