Newsvine Green [#006E2E]

so here i present to all of you a simple css code that you can add to your website css file and then just use the following id tags.

#Shiny_silver {color:#EEEEEE;}
#Reddit_white {color:#FFFFFF;}
#Magnolia {color:#F9F7ED;}
#interactive_yellow{color:#FFFF88;}
#Mint { color:#CDEB8B;}
#Gmail_blue { color:#C3D9FF;}
#Shadows_Grey {color:#36393D;}
#Mozilla_Red{color:#FF1A00;}
#Rollyo_Red{color:#CC0000;}
#RSS_Orange{color:#FF7400;}
#Techcrunch_green{color:#008C00;}_
#Newsvine_Green{color:#006E2E;}
#Flock_Blue{color:#4096EE;}
#Flickr_Pink{color:#FF0084;}
#Ruby_on_Rails_Red{color:#B02B2C;}
#Etsy_Vermillion{color:#D15600;}
#Things_Gold{color:#C79810;}
#Writely_Olive{color:#73880A;}
#Basecamp_Green{color:#6BBA70;}
#Mozilla_Blue{color:#3F4C6B;}
#Digg_Blue{color:#356AA0;}
#Last.fm_Crimson{color:#D01F3C;}

also many think that instead of following id based format we should have class based css files and hence another code with css corrected to be used in class based format.

Shiny_silver {color:#EEEEEE;}
Reddit_white {color:#FFFFFF;}
Magnolia {color:#F9F7ED;}
interactive_yellow{color:#FFFF88;}
Mint { color:#CDEB8B;}
Gmail_blue { color:#C3D9FF;}
Shadows_Grey {color:#36393D;}
Mozilla_Red{color:#FF1A00;}
Rollyo_Red{color:#CC0000;}
RSS_Orange{color:#FF7400;}
Techcrunch_green{color:#008C00;}_
Newsvine_Green{color:#006E2E;}
Flock_Blue{color:#4096EE;}
Flickr_Pink{color:#FF0084;}
Ruby_on_Rails_Red{color:#B02B2C;}
Etsy_Vermillion{color:#D15600;}
Things_Gold{color:#C79810;}
Writely_Olive{color:#73880A;}
Basecamp_Green{color:#6BBA70;}
Mozilla_Blue{color:#3F4C6B;}
Digg_Blue{color:#356AA0;}
Last.fm_Crimson{color:#D01F3C;}

hope this could help someone
