Unnamed 216 Websafe Colours

Not all colours have names. In theory you can specify ff * ff * ff = 16,777,216 different colours, too many to display here. In practice, often only 216 of them are distinct, the ones using 00, 33, 66, 99, cc and ff. Here are those 216 commonly supported colours, often called the Websafe Pallette:
