Thanks! (I feel special now )

In my opinion it looks better if you bold your colored words, but that's just me.

EDIT:

I forgot there is also a help page for BB codes:

A shortcut to doing colours you can't do by text (i.e. "red", blue", etc.) is to do the hexidecimal with only 3 digits instead of 6.

#0df is a shortcut for #00ddff. #ea0 is short for #eeaa00, red-red-green-green-blue-blue.

I used to do this all the time.

I was just telling him the simplest way without all the gibberish of the hex code, there are multiple ways to do it.

By no means was I in any way implying your way was more complex or not worth doing. I was sharing one method most people aren't familiar with.

Once you get comfortable with how to conjure up a desired colour using hex, you have more colour options than you would with using text to identify the colour you want. Is it more complex? To me, no. Once you know the hex code, which is at most 5 minutes trial and error, you only type 4 characters rather than a full word. Spend the extra bit of effort and save more time after that.
