Williams and Tolett (page 180) explain how to create "web-safe colors,"
that is colors that will be displayed properly on any browser:
Use only hex color codes that are one of 00, 33, 66, 99, CC, or FF.
Example: Give the hex color code for web-safe orange.
When setting a color in FrontPage, the hexagonal grid that
results from choosing "More Colors" always gives web-safe colors.
Although web-safe colors are not as important today as they
were for older browsers, they are important when printing webpages.
To create a pastel color:
Set the color component to FF for the desired hue.
Set the color components to slightly less than FF
(C0 to F0) for the other components.
Example:
Create a pastel color for green: set the color components for
red and green to FF. Set the color component for blue to E0.
