![]() | Tutorial: Websafe Colors One thing that i find usefull when making websites is what i was tought as the rule of 51. Basically, all websafe colors, when in rgb format, are 3 numbers each a multiple of 51 (xxx,xxx,xxx). 000, 051, 102, 153, 204, and 255 are the numbers which can be used to make up these websafe colors. But how does this help you? html doesn't use rgb, html uses hex.... ok.. well.. heres the same values in hex. 00, 33, 66, 99, CC, and FF. Examples 000,000,000 = 000000 000,051,000 = 003300 153,255,102 = 99FF66 Now... what do these numbers do? ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/webmaster-tutorials/14891-tutorial-websafe-colors.html in RGB mode the first 3 numbers represents the color R, the second 3 green and the third 3 represent blue. The higher the number for one color, the more of that color will appear in the final color.

![]() | Well, I am working on a website now and I am using #DBEEFF. While that make a difference when the viewer would use 16 bit set-up against 32 bit set-up? I mean the monitor settings...coz I want to use pastel and most of those colors have different combinations. Like #F9E6CA or #FADEF0. Are these advisable?
