The hexidecimal numbers are as follows: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F and hexidecmial code can be broken down as such:

#RRGGBB

RR = the red color GG = green color BB = blue color.

Using combinations of these three colors, you will be able create a vast array of colors. The "smallest" value you can have for a color is BLACK: #000000 The "largest" value you can have for a color is WHITE: #FFFFFF The strongest RED value is #FF0000, GREEN: #00FF00, and BLUE: #0000FF.

Any code you use that have red = green = blue will create a shade of GREY. #888888 will be an "average" grey where #333333 will be a dark grey and #CCCCCC will be a light grey.

If you want to make a blueish color, all you have to do is make sure the BLUE value you use in the hex code is larger than the red value and the green value. #234195 will make a blue color as "95" is larger than "23" and also larger than "41" This code: #7579A2 will also make a blue color (A2 is larger than 75 and 79). But the difference is that the first blue will be darker and a more intense blue while the second will be lighter and closer to a grey-blue. The best way to really see what happens is to experiment.
