See my Code below. I use it to copy Logo Color to change the site theme automatically at run-time. Hope it works!

Simply pass the image URL as parameter in the function.

function CopyLogoColor($logo_path){
    $i = imagecreatefromjpeg($logo_path);

    $rTotal = 0;
    $gTotal =0;
    $bTotal = 0;
    $total = 0;

    for ( $x=0 ; $x> 16) & 0xFF;
            $g   = ($rgb >> 8)& 0xFF;
            $b   = $rgb & 0xFF;

            $rTotal += $r;
            $gTotal += $g;
            $bTotal += $b;
            $total++;

        }
    }

    $rAverage = round($rTotal/$total);
    $gAverage = round($gTotal/$total);
    $bAverage = round($bTotal/$total);



    $r = intval($rAverage); 
    $g = intval($gAverage);
    $b = intval($bAverage);

    $r = dechex($r<0?0:($r>255?255:$r));
    $g = dechex($g<0?0:($g>255?255:$g));
    $b = dechex($b<0?0:($b>255?255:$b));

    $color = (strlen($r) < 2?'0':'').$r;
    $color .= (strlen($g) < 2?'0':'').$g;
    $color .= (strlen($b) < 2?'0':'').$b;

    return '#'.$color;

}
