Hey Chris,

For future reference, hexadecimal value is just a super fancy way of saying "write a color with a hashtag." Like white #ffffff or black #000000. There's 16 million possibilities! The cool thing is, you can always google a color you want or even see a color in a webpage you like and check out the color code then put it on your own page. It's super easy and can spice up your pages fast!
