Who doesn't LOVE crayons?
And now we can be all geeky with hex codes and crayons. Check it out!
Now you may be asking yourself, what are "Hex Codes"?
Hex codes are the values of a color for a website that a browser understands. A very reliable way to make sure the color you chose remained that color when you tested on multiple browsers and operating systems and monitors! Way back in the day there were only 256 colors you could use. Now the spectrum has expanded.
WebMonkey has a useful page of the color chart - take a peek.
w3schools explains:
Color Values
HTML colors are defined using a hexadecimal notation (HEX) for the combination of Red, Green, and Blue color values (RGB).
The lowest value that can be given to one of the light sources is 0 (in HEX: 00). The highest value is 255 (in HEX: FF).
HEX values are specified as 3 pairs of two-digit numbers, starting with a # sign."
So now you can see why web designers think the crayon box version of hex colors is so darn cute :)
