There used to be a ton of sites out there with that... some even had calculators built in. Run a search for hexidecimal, hexidecimal conversion, bbs color matching etc.

You may not always match them exactly. We ran into that back in the old bbs days when we did work for some local bbs's. It might be better now since so many colors are available on the vid cards. The differences if or when you run in to them might not stick out so plainly.

Here's an easy way to convert Decimal numbers to Hex or Hex to Decimal...

Open your regular windows calculator.

Go to View, switch it to Scientific mode.

Decimal to Hex
Select the Dec radio button. enter in your decimal number. click the Hex radio button.. voila, there's your Hex.

Hex to Dec..
Same thing in reverse..

For whatever that's worth....

No shit. I am fully aware that FF, F0, and FB are three separate numbers. 256, 192, and 203 are decimal numbers

FF=255
F0= 240
FB=251 in decimal

sorry, hex only goes up to F

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F

octal = 0.1.2.3.4.5.6.7

binary = 0,1
