In our case, we changed the color to red, and here's how the image looks.

Now, you can even select a color of your choice (other than the options that you have in the color selector). If you know the hexadecimal code of the colors that you need, then you're all set.

To do that, click on the 'Selected Color,' and type in the hexadecimal code of the color that you prefer. Notice how the color changes. In the image, we applied the hexadecimal code, '#FFFF00' to replace the earlier red.
