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?
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.
