Web Page Colors, Hexadecimal Values.

Hi. Putting colors on a web page is easy for me. I´ve been doing it like, forever. To many people the whole process is quite complex and can lead to big problems. When you talk about web page colors, hexadecimal values, you are talking about 16,700,000 options. That is the number of colors that the human eye can see. Of course the same people that made up this number say that dogs only see in black and white so who really knows.

Oh, when I say web page colors, hexadecimal values, that means the color definition that looks like this, #00ff00. What the heck is that? That is called a hexadecimal value. A value not based on the base 10 system of math, but a base 16 system where 0 is the lowest value and f is the largest value. 0123456789Abcdef,,,,Like that! Zero lowest, F highest.

And when using this code to add web page colors, hexadecimal values, why are the numbers/letters preceded by an octothorp? And what is an octothorp? An octothorp is the #, pound sign, hash tag, whatever, it´s real name is “octothorp.” You can use this for conversation at a wine sipping occasion.

So how serious are web page colors, hexadecimal values? I bet the web designers at Well´s Fargo, or any major corporation have the web page colors, hexadecimal values of their web site memorized.

Anyway, See the Video, uncover the truths behind web page colors, hexadecimal values.
