Calcium Documentation - Colors
You can choose a pre-defined color using its name, or you can
specify any arbitrary color using a numeric
value which specifies the relative intensities of the Red,
Green, and Blue pixels.
Valid names with the colors they represent are shown below. (You can
click your mouse and drag over a color name to highlight it if it is
unreadable.) An explanation of how to specify any color using a
numeric value is at the bottom of the page.

Specifying Colors Using Numeric Values
Any color can be specified by using a numeric value which
represents the relative amounts of red, green, and blue. These
values are specified as a six digit hexadecimal number,
preceded by the # character. The first two digits of the
number specify the Red value, the next two specify Green, and
the final two are for Blue. Some examples:
#000000 - black
#0000ff - blue
#ff00ff - purple
(full red and blue)
#777777 - medium gray
(equal parts red, green, blue)
#cc9903 - yellowish
(lots of red, some green, almost no blue)
