average-color's Issues

Color calculation doesn't seem to work on mobile

I'll look into this when I have more time, but it appears something is broken on mobile. Just wanted to open an issue so I don't forget about it.

Want to know the exact algorithm for getaveragecolor()

sir , i want to know the exact stepwise algorithm of the function geteveragecolor.
can you help please.

computes average RGB color rather than perceptual color

You may want to use Lab, HLS or distance measures to compute the average color.

Square the RGB values before averaging them

a big thanks!!!

not an issue, just want to say thanks... was about to manually calculate average color for 60+ images, but your script saved me from that... i owe you one big time!

Does not use alpha channel

When analysing an image with lots of alpha (transparent) pixels, the result tends toward black.

Incorrect on Firefox Ubuntu 18.10

Without dragging?

Hi! two things:

1. Is it possible to do average color of an image by ID? (and not drag-drop)
2. if 1 is possible -- does it have to be base 64? 😞

Thanks!
