The HTML or RGB formats are different ways to specify colors, and many web
resources will give you appropriate values.  Some web pages I saw:
         http://www.webmonkey.com/reference/color_codes/
   http://visibone.com/colorlab/   http://the-light.com/colclick.html

Under Windows, one fairly sure way is to open Paint, (from Start/ Programs/
Accessories or from Start/ Run/ mspaint.exe,) and select "Colors", "Edit
Colors", "Define Custom Colors".  Setting the brighness bar and double
clicking a suitable color will show the RGB value on a scale from 0 to 255.
You can also simply click the sample colors for RGB values.

I also like the "Anry Color Picker", http://www.anryhome.com: put your mouse
on any color and hit the Alt-x key combination to see what it is, as well as
harmonious colors.  You can swipe other people's color schemes for free!

You can either enter Red, Green, Blue values, on a scale of 0 to 255, and
separated by commas, such as 0,0,255 for blue, or the 2+2+2 hex equivalent of
the same, such as 0000FF for blue.  To see examples, enter "rgb?"
