Big tip, for those of you who may not know:
I got sick and tired of converting my colours from RGB to their hexadecimal equivalent. I lamented, "Isn't there an easier way?"
Sure, you can use software to convert it for you, but that is still an extra step I find really tedious, particularily if you ever want to tweak your colours.
Then I found out about a CSS value that saves me the trouble.
Example:
color: #000000;
is equal to
color: rgb(0,0,0);
So there it is. No more trying to figure out hex equivalents, you simply type in rgb, then place the RGB values within parenthesis, separated by one comma.
Another example:
color: #ffffff;
is equal to
color: rgb(255,255,255);
:-D
