Thread: rememberinng color codes

As far as I know, there are a lot of codes for colors in HTML and the only ones that I remember are Black and White because they are probably one of the easiest to remember.

Do you guys remember all the color codes (or at least most common ones) or do you keep a notepad next to you with all the codes?

Use photoshop for getting color codes, thats easier.

Yep I use photo shop and dreamweaver to look up colors. But I had not thought of using notepad With the color codes on it, Using notepad would be a lot quicker than waiting for PS to load. Thanks for the idea himoacs. Here are some color code links:

Life is much easier with the internet and friends

It's come to a point that I know most of the times the colors that I need from the top of my head. Sometimes, I just use Photoshop to get my colors, it's much easier, though I hate waiting for it to load

I agree with you Manik, the internet definitely makes life so much easier!

Here is mine secret and this one definitely rocks
