Very Brief Overview

There are 216 web safe colors. These colors are considered web safe because all browsers have these 216 colors in common. Use the Web Safe Color Table to pick the colors you want to use for your background, text, links, borders, etc. There are also 16 colors you can reference by name instead of value on the Web Color Names Table. Or if you already have a color picked out that you want to use, the calculator below can convert your RGB values into the appropriate HTML code.

Note: HTML color codes are hexadecimal numbers (base 16). RGB color values are base 10 numbers. RGB stands for red, green, blue. Values for each of these three colors range from 0-255. 0 = none, 255 = max. So the RGB value for Red would be 255,0,0 because red would be at its max and the other 2 colors would be absent.
