Tips: Go to a colornumber, keep pushing on the left mouse-button and drag the mouse over the colornumbers, to see the colornumbers in the opposite color. On your keyboard: Ctrl and '+' = Zoom-in, Ctrl and '-' = Zoom-out

All the basic rules of the RGB: R (Red ) G ( Green) B (Blue) color system
Basics of the RGB Color-systems ...
The decimal number system has 10 digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
The hexadecimal number system has 16 digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F
( If you read decimal: A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14, F=15 )
So the 16 hexadecimal digits/letters from 0 to 15 are: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F
A group of 2 pairs of 16 hexadecimal digits/letters from 0 to 15 are: 00, 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, AA, BB, CC, DD, EE, FF
If we combine these 2 pair of 16 digits we can make a combination of 16 x 16 = 256 different digit/letters, read decimal from : 0 - 255, and read hexadecimal from : 00 to FF
For example: 00, 01, 02, 03 ,09, 0A, 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3C, 4D, 55, 66, 77, 78, 79, 7A, 7B, A1, A2, B9, C9, CA, CC, D4, DE, DF, EF, F3, FA, FF, etc, (a total of 256 combinations, from 00 to FF)
If we want to make colors, we have to make 3 groups of 2 pairs hexadecimal digits: from 00 00 00 up to FF FF FF
The RGB-numbering-system ...
(From the Black color to the Red, Green or Blue color )
KLIK HERE for the Color-chart ...
The RGB-colorsystem means: R = Red, G = Green, B = Blue, the 3 primary basic colors of the RGB-colorsystem.
There are 3 bacis colors: RED ( the first group of 2 digits), GREEN ( the second group of 2 digits ) and BLUE ( the third and last group of 2
digits)
So: First group: 00 = RED (from 00 to FF) + second group: 00 = GREEN (from 00 to FF) + third group: 00 = BLUE (from 00 to FF) makes 3 pairs, from : 00 00 00 up to FF FF FF
Each group has 256 different digit/Letter combinations, starting from: 00 00 00 up to FF FF FF
So we can make 256 (1st RED group) x 256 (2nd GREEN group) x 256 (3rd BLUE group) = 16.777.216 different digit/Letter combinations.

NOTE : The RGB-color system, starts with 00 00 for the 2 not used color groups, from black to the color!
Further below, you will see the CMY-color system, which starts with FF FF for the 2 not used color groups, from the color to white!
RED = # FF 00 00
( 00-FF , 00 , 00 )
GREEN = # 00 FF 00
( 00 , 00-FF , 00 )
BLUE = # 00 00 FF
( 00 , 00 , 00-FF )
Creating the 3 secondary colors, YELLOW, MAGENTA and CYAN ...
Blue + Green = Cyan ( #00 00 FF + #00 FF 00 = #00 FF FF )
Red + Blue = Magenta ( #FF 00 00 + #00 00 FF = #FF 00 FF )
Red + Green = Yellow ( #FF 00 00 + #00 FF 00 = #FF FF 00 )
CMY = Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, created from RGB
For more information about secondary colors, KLIK HERE ...
YELLOW = RED + GREEN
# FF FF 00 = #FF 00 00 + #00 FF 00
( 00-FF , 00-FF , 00 )
MAGENTA = RED + BLUE
# FF 00 FF = #FF 00 00 + #00 00 FF
( 00-FF , 00 , 00-FF )
CYAN = GREEN + BLUE
# 00 FF FF = #00 FF 00 + #00 00 FF
( 00 , 00-FF , 00=FF )
GREY = RED + GREEN + BLUE ( all 3 have the same digits/letters )
( 00-FF , 00-FF , 00=FF )
There are 6 tertiary colors, AZURE, VIOLET, ROSE, ORANGE, CHARTREUSE, SPRING GREEN
Cyan + Blue = Azure
Blue + Magenta = Violet
Magenta + Red = Rose
Red + Yellow = Orange
Yellow + Green = Chartreuse
Green + Cyan = Spring Green

CMY: C = Cyan, M = Magenta, Y = Yellow, the 3 primary basic colors of the CMY-colorsystem.
CYAN = # 00 FF FF
( 00-FF , FF , FF )
MAGENTA = # FF 00 FF
( FF , 00-FF , FF )
YELLOW = # FF FF 00
( FF , FF , 00-FF )
BLUE = CYAN + MAGENTA
# 00 00 FF = #00 FF FF + #FF 00 FF
( 00-FF , 00-FF , FF )
RED = MAGENTA + YELLOW
# FF 00 00 = #FF 00 FF + #FF FF 00
( FF , 00-FF , 00-FF )
GREEN = CYAN + YELLOW
# 00 FF 00 = #00 FF FF + #FF FF 00
( 00-FF , FF , 00-FF )
Summary :
3 primary colors:
Red (# FF 00 00 )
Green ( # 00 FF 00 )
Blue ( # 00 00 FF )
RGB = Red, Green, Blue
Grey ( # 00-FF = 00-FF = 00-FF ) = Red + Green + Blue ( All 3 the same value's )
3 secondary colors:
Cyan ( # 00 FF FF ) = Blue (# 00 00 FF ) + Green (# 00 FF 00 )
Magenta ( # FF 00 FF ) = Red ( # FF 00 00 ) + Blue ( # 00 00 FF )
Yellow ( # FF FF 00 ) = Red ( # FF 00 00 ) + Green ( # 00 FF 00 )
CMY = Cyan, Magenta, Yellow
CMYK = Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, BlacK
