...I suppose it could be a little suspicious that each digit is a multiple of three...although I may be overlooking the obvious.

0 3 6 9 C(12)

Of course, that would allow F as well...

Don't know where we'd go with this, but it's there.

Well, not sure if that's done on purpose, or if it means anything but I have used colors like those on multiple sites. These colors include:

#336699
#6699FF
#336666
#666699

Nice blue/aqua/greyish shades.

[edit] If you look at http://www.after-shock.org/index.php?nav=7&sel=2 you will see that they're not uncommon to be in multiples of 3

But, then again, it might be something significant....you never know.[/edit]

Nothing special here.. By definition, Web Safe colors are created by using the exact same approach outlined here

Notice that they are all using multiples of 3.. I never use any other color on my websites

Just an FYI on the colors: I posted this a couple of weeks ago, but the colors are similar in order to the color spectrum of a rainbow... ROY G. BIV... Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet...

Ah damn it! I just realized that the Indigo color should have been a tip off to Beth's password in her archives! Holy crap! Smart dudes, those PMs...
