colour matching

T

Tony

Is anyone able to let me know how I identify the colour of my web-page
background in a manner that enables me to pass it to someone who is
recolouring an image for it, and will need to exactly match it?

Many thanks. Tony

If you have assigned a color to your page background, under page properties, custom you can get the
HEX or RGB values.

Following this just indicates "Microsoft Theme" "evrgreen 1100". I started
with the Evergreen theme, but ended up, by design, with just the basic dark
green background as a solid colour. This is the colour I'm trying to identify
in HEX or RGB values? Does this help you help me??!

Thanks, Thomas. Tony

View the page in your browser, then view source and look at the background color tag in the body
tag, or have the person that needs the color look.

I can find <td bgcolor="#003916"> three quarters of the way down the index
page? Hopefully this is the green I'm looking for?? Is there anywhere I can
check I've got it right? Thanks for your replies and your patience. Tony

Tony,

That is a very dark green... #003916 (HTML)
If you need the RGB Equivalent - R= 0 G= 57 B= 22

You can identify any color in a page by just using the Color Format Icon Tool and selecting More colors and then the Select
(Eyedropper)

Only works well when all of the pixels are the same color, so it doesn't work well on images.
