    Just came across this hex RGB color: #cacaca. Doesn't sound like a pretty color, but it's actually pretty plain. Any other words you can come up with using hex colors? Here's my contribution: #b00b00 I imagine that looks like a shade of dark brown (not unlike a bear).

                "b0bfac" a person who has sent more than 11,583,404 seconds (3217 hours) using CodeProject. As a color this comes out as a kind of "institutional looking" slightly greenish-gray, of the type often used to paint hospital walls. Throw in a 2 byte alpha channel, and you could get a lot more creative as in "faceb00b" best, Bill

                                          If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader." - John Quincy Adams
                                          You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering” - Wernher von Braun
