The HTML Color Guide

Welcome to the HTML Color Guide!

Hello, and welcome to the HTML color guide, created by Wallie and Tech Dude.

Ever wanted to post your message in a different color than the defaults? If so, use the codes listed here corresponding to each color to do so.

This thread has been organized in the following ways. The first post will contain the default colors. These are those colors where you can type in COLOR=colorname and it appears correctly. For example,

Code:: <font color="green">Hi</font>

would produce text in green.

The other posts use colors with number and letter codes (HEX). They aren't too hard to figure out. They have been divided by color (all the reds with the reds, all the blues in a separate post, etc.) Plus, not all codes are listed here. There are plenty of more colors (more shades too).

For Clarification:You may notice that some colors look very similar, such as some shades of yellow might appear to be in the greens section. This was taken from a book that had already sorted the colors, so instead of going through and moving them later, we posted them as is.

We hope you enjoy this guide and find it helpful

The HTML Color Guide - Conclusions

The HTML Color Guide - Conclusions

First off, I would like to thank Tech Dude for help in creating this guide. I would also like to thank smashbrosdude91 for approving the idea last month and for giving us a basic code to fill in.

These were just a few of the many colors you can use in HTML. There are plenty more, which can be found by using their HEX code. So, go ahead and try things out.

If you would like to try some of the colors displayed here out, go and check out the Try out your HTML! thread.

Thank you for your support and for reading this guide, and we hope that you find it useful.
