Colored Text Question

As probably everyone knows, you can make text the color yellow with the coding |cffffcc00(text)|r.

My question is:
1.How do you make text different colors like red and blue, etc?
2.Are there more text color codes as easy as the yellow text code?
3.Do you have to download a tool to change text colors, and if so where can I download it?

Thanks for your time!

The text colors are all written in their binary identification in html code. A basic knowledge of the language would help you in this regard. However, there are some tools in the download section of this very site (imagine that) that will allow you to input the html codes without having to type it all out. I personally use the WCIII Color Picker, but there are others.

Just remember this though.

Some tools will do the coloring for you and give you the code. However, the program will want you to have a separte color code for each individual letter in the word(s) you are colorizing. You don't have to that. Just use the concept that you stated in the first post.

I figured that out the hard way :-)
