asked on

how does the "BackColor" Long Integer work?

white = 16777215
pink = 13027071
blue = 15977088

(or there abouts)

what i'm asking is, if i want to tweek the shade a little, what's the logic?

i thought it might be RRR GGG BBB but (besides there not being 9 digits) i've been playing with it, and i can't determine any rhyme to it.

for the points, please tell me what digits control what aspects of the color (or a good web site where this information can be found)

thanks,
mac
