Safe colors

Safe colors were invented to provide standard means for displaying web contents in times when 8 bit (256 colors) palette was used. Provided that 40 system colors were reserved for displaying interface items in Microsoft and Macintosh operating systems, 216 colors were left for graphic needs to ensure compatibility on various computer systems.
Nowadays, in most cases these 216 safe colors have became obsolete since most of the modern computers use 16-bit or higher color depth. However in some specific cases it might be essential to use only safe colors for maximum compatibility. Safe colors are also referred to as web safe colors, 216 cross platform colors, web palette, web-safe palette, non-dithering palette and / or 6x6x6 color cube.
Color chart shows Safe color names and appropriate HTML color codes (HEX and RGB values).
Tip: to sort colors, click color chart column header or footer. It is possible to sort colors by their Lightness, Name, HEX or RGB value. Use Online Color Picker to choose custom colors from millions of colors!
