Whenever I use hex codes on my page all the colors turn out either blue or green, even though I originally put in a code for a yellow or a red, etc. Any solutions??

Post your code - there must be something wrong with it.

It's more than one code actually but here's one of them...

<font color=“#FF4362”>lovE</font>

It's supposed to turn out kind of pinkish but instead I got this weird lime green color.

My page url is www.xanga.com/paperfan_icons

There must be a part of you layout code that is interfering with the font code.

Or maybe you typed the hexadecimal code in wrong.

He didn't, it's posted above.

Post your whole code so we can see if something else is messing it up

I looked at your page, and if i'm guessing correctly, you're talking about the green stuff in your profile area at the right. I don't know how you managed to do it, but the quotation marks around the hex value are the “curly” ones, like the ones word automatically makes. HTML doesn't understand these, and needs to use the straight ones, like these: "" Otherwise, the browser usually does some weird formula to make up a color, rather than reading the hex codes.
