Tools for the design of your email campaigns

1. Colorzilla

With this extension, available for both Chrome and Firefox, you can know the colour in hexadecimal and RGB of any website you are browsing: discover the colours of logos, photographs, backgrounds, typographies...

2. Muzli

A colour palette generator that is very easy to use: when you select a colour, it suggests the colours with which it combines best. You can also upload an image so that it tells you its palette and examples that use it to inspire you.

3. WebAIM

On this website, you can test the contrast between two colours to make sure you are designing an accessible campaign, i.e. one that can be seen well by all users, especially people who have colour blindness.

4. What Font Is

It's perfect when you want to use a font for your newsletter images but can't remember which one you used last time. It can also be used for any photograph you find online and you like the font they have used.

5. Page Ruler

This Chrome extension allows you to measure the size of any website by simply selecting the snippet you are interested in.

27. Dynamic image generator
