Need help with color plz!!

Does anyone know where I can find the source codes for colored text for W3?
I wanna make an item with a redish-purple name, but a lot more color codes than that would be nice as well!

Thanks,

That should work for you I assume.

Yea, that probably would work but only prob is this isn't exactly my computer so I dun wanna really download anything. Suppose I will just go back to guessing then, couldn't take too long to get it right, right!? Sigh..

Thanks anyway tho! :)

A couple of sites the I got from google in seconds. If you need anything more comprehensive, I'm sure google will serve you just as well.

Again, great try but I don't think those codes will work..If I remember right W3 uses 8 digit color codes, the ones on both of those sights are only 6 digit codes, I will try but I don't think it will work :(

Thanks,

WC3 uses hexadecimal color codes that are very easy to understand: the first two digits are alpha, the second pair is red, the third green and the forth blue. Mix these to get your desired color

What exactly are the first 2 digits used for?

Alpha (transparency), but they actually have no effect. Just leave them as FF (so take the colour codes from those sites and put FF in front).

Just click the three bars to choose your colors and type your text.
