Just a quick question... I noticed that on some website layouts, they'll use different hex codes. For example,
CODE background-color:#fff; instead of CODE background-color:#ffffff; What is up with that? Where do you get just three letters, especially on more complicated colors? |

If the last three will be like that, then only three is used. E.g. instead of "cccccc" you can put "ccc" or "abc" can be "aabbcc".

OHHH, okay. That makes sense, thanks
So, then, the three letter codes are pretty much just for the "web safe" colors? |
