I helped write a library called colorific to detect a colour palette given an image. You might find it interesting. https://github.com/99designs/colorific

We blogged a bit about how it works too: http://99designs.com/tech-blog/blog/2012/05/11/color-analysi...

Hello, thank you for your sharing. It's awesome library and I think to use colorific in my project. we don't need to reinvent the wheel.

But it seems to need improvement to support Pillow, latest version of Python2, etc. I still didn't try but I'll examine it. Thanks.

Yeah, we built it to work well on logos and vector artwork, but it might not work so well for photographs. Anyway, see what you think. :)
