To make the colors more distinct I have used a grey (#c0c0c0) background for this page.

For each color red, green, and blue "ff" is full on while "00" is off. White is: #ffffff and Black would be: #000000 The full effect of each pair of digits is shown in the small chart at the top.

Notes:

1. In HTML the "#" at the start of the HEX number is required. I left it out in the main table to reduce the width.
2. The big chart is arranged to show in the upper left corner all colors on, to all colors mostly off in the lower right corner of the table.
3. To keep the chart a reasonable size, I have not used values less than "11"; and the values decrease by "22". Yes, a funny way to count backwards! I counted backwards because I wanted the brighter values first.
4. It was an arbitrary choice to make the second digit of each HEX pair the same as the first. It makes each step a little bigger, thus the range of colors a little larger without increasing the size of the chart.
5. The chart ends with #111111 because it is so dark it is essentially black on most monitors; but if you want black you should use #000000 The small chart at the top shows the colors with individual "00"s.
6. This chart should give you a good starting point. You may want to experiment with values between the ones in this chart. And, I prefer to have the second of each byte digit be 0 except for white where all six are f. Have fun!
