hex colour test

[Edt]

Dear all.. could you please try the following link for me(dont worry nothing ghastly) to test html hex colours for me ?

www.tvrbliss.co.uk/misc/hex-colour-test.html

they should get fainter.. but more importantly all the greys should be visible. I'm particularly interested in people not running bang up to date technology.. older macs.. NS 4 etc etc

big thanks !!

regards,
Ed

just to explain the reason is I want to use non web safe colours for a site.. (ie not rigidly stick to #aaaaaa, #cccccc etc etc) but hoping to see, with help, is if safe.

I wondered if the paler tones would dither on a laptop screen.. hmmm will add some text over the tints which would show this fault better..

regards, Ed

Looks OK, although you really ought to put a # in front of the hex codes in the bgcolor attributes (just like you did in the displayed text). Plus you've got 5 empty table rows, but you probably know that.

oops yeah the table is 10 rows - meant to remove bottom 5 .. will do

I can only see 5 rows, #cccccc through to #f5f5f5. If it makes any difference I'm using an IBM ThinkPad T30, True Colour - 1024x768. >> Edited by .Markski on Thursday 9th September 21:23

that's quite correct... 4WD wash just joshing

Look fine on Firefox running on Win2kSP4 @ 1280x1024 truecolour However, to my eyes there's no difference between rows 3 & 4 (or, if anything, row 3 is marginally darker than 4) >> Edited by pdV6 on Friday 10th September 10:56

yeah noticed that.. think it's an illusion due to the surrounding colours. There's obv. bugger all difference between eeeeee and efefef anyhow. look at the page again & block off dddddd and f5f5f5 with your hand.. you'll see what I mean hopefully
