Or: AE = A16+E = 160+14 = 174 And so on... To understand this, try the same with decimal numbers: 140, for instance, = 110^2 + 410^1 + 010^0 (^ meaning "exponent"). Or binary, 101 = 12^2 + 0 2^1 + 1 * 2^0 = decimal 5.[/quote] ------------------------ Relevant threads: [url=http://www.ozoneasylum.com/Forum1/HTML/008163.html]calculating the average of two hex colors?[/url] ------------------------ Relevant links: [url=http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/tools/color-blend/]Color Blender[/url] - a very useful tool. ------------------------- Relevant FAQs: [internallink=5051]Can you direct me to good resources on colour?[/internallink] ___________________ [internallink=4626]Emperor[/internallink] [small][i](Added by: [url=http://www.ozoneasylum.com/cgi-bin/ubbmisc.cgi?action=getbio&UserName=Emperor]Emperor [/url] on Sun 12-Oct-2003)[/i][/small] [small][i](Edited by: [url=http://www.ozoneasylum.com/cgi-bin/ubbmisc.cgi?action=getbio&UserName=DL-44]DL-44 [/url] on Sun 12-Oct-2003)[/i][/small] Loading...
