[dba-VB] Web colours

Hi Gustav:

I should have read right through your question before I, with a sandwich in
hand, responded.

Use any colour you want.

Hi all

Those of you designing web pages, do you still stick to the "safe web
colours" - the limited selection of 216 colours out of 256 possible colours?

As this Lynda writes, in 1996 this might be a concern, but today where I
hardly know nobody having the old 65000 colour resolution, is this still
valid in any way?
Isn't is safe - at least for normal business use - to just go ahead and use
the full RGB scale?
