THE STORY

We all know and love the classic 'red, blue, yellow, green, black, white etc.' that can be used to specify a color in CSS, but you have to admit they're bor-ring, right? Well, there are over 130 more beautiful and imaginatively named CSS colors in addition to the basic six/seventeen, accepted by all major browsers.

Many sites are dedicated to and list them, but I couldn't really find a high res image I could save to my computer or print for easy reference.

While even reputable sources fluctuate on exact numbers, I decided to go with 147--as specified by W3Schools--when I created the first in a set of graphics which lists the colors by name, hexcode and RGB percentage. All can be used in CSS and make for easy color coordination across a design project.
