| (...) In the standard color wheel, pastels are achieved by adding white to a pure color, and earthtones are achieved by adding black, so I'm guessing the really dark colors are all termed Earth Something. The really confusing part is that I think (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, FTX)

| (...) I know it's not, by definition, a LSC issue, but perhaps it should be. Much of the cross-site element "system" has been based on LDraw's part numbering and whatnot. If you look at Peeron, for instance, the parts are listed by their LDraw (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, FTX)

| (...) The LSC could address this, but the LSC members aren't necessarily experts on the color palette. And it's an issue bigger than LDraw.org. So maybe a cross-organization group is called for? If we're going to talk about a 'system' for the color (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, FTX)

| All, I've seen many requests as of late to have LEGO release their color names for the specific brick colors. There has also been multiple requests for RGB/CMYK values and specific LEGO part numbers. Over the years I've addressed this question here (...)
