What is Palette.fm?
Palette is an online colorization tool for black-and-white photographs. Its official site describes uploading an image, comparing color filters, and adjusting the result with descriptive words before downloading it. Multiple-image upload and preview options support exploration. The practical use is seeing how a monochrome photograph might look in color, with the important distinction that a plausible generated palette is an interpretation rather than evidence of the scene's original colors.
Compare the whole scene before refining details
Start with a clear scan and inspect several treatments for skin tones, clothing, vegetation, and background balance. Choose a direction that feels coherent across the image rather than optimizing one small area in isolation. Preserve the original scan alongside every edited version. For a family photograph, known details from relatives or records may help guide choices that a model cannot infer from grayscale alone.
Use descriptive adjustments carefully
Palette allows keyword-based changes after selecting a filter. Describe the desired color or mood clearly and compare the revised version with the previous one. Check edges and objects that may receive inconsistent color, especially where similar gray values represent different materials. Before printing or sharing, inspect the full-resolution output and identify the image as colorized when viewers could mistake it for an untouched historical photograph.

Who is Palette.fm for?
Useful for family-photo projects, creative restoration, and visual exploration of monochrome images. It fits users who want to compare plausible color treatments and can preserve the original while making careful choices about how the edited image is presented.
Before you get started
Colorization invents information that grayscale does not uniquely contain. Do not treat generated colors as historical proof, and confirm current resolution, watermark, credit, and image-handling terms before processing valuable or sensitive photographs.
