When web developers specify color values for text or backgrounds, they often represent RGB (red-green- blue) colors using a six-digit hexadecimal (base-16) value, such as #BF5700, in which the first two characters represent the red component of the color, the middle two characters represent the green component, and the final two characters represent the blue component. Each of these color components can be assigned one of 256 different values (decimal: 0 - 255, hexadecimal: 00 - FF), with lower values representing darker shades and higher values representing brighter shades. You want to configure the text on your blog to use a slightly darker shade of purple than the one you have seen used on another website. The purple used on that site has an RGB value of #7F20FF.
