Hi Diane.
I'm not very knowledgable in the area of web safe color just yet.

But here are to excerpts from discussions on this list regarding color
which you might like to look at.

"On Dave Raggett's introduction to style sheets:
http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Guide/Style
There is a chart of 'web safe colors' - these are supposed to look the
same to everyone (regardless of O/S, browser, settings etc...) He
explains (better than I can) why these are 'safe' and also lists the 16
named colors defined in the HTML 3.2 and 4.01 specifications."

and

"The Webmonkey article "Death of the Websafe Color Palette?"
explains it all, Along with a bunch of other things related to color:
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/00/37/index2a.html?tw=design."

What are the implications of a colour not being "web safe"?
