(...) your photo... The TLC/peeron list has a range of colors above 200 that are not on the tile swatches. Conversely, the tile swatches are present for the following numbers that are not on the list: 20, 109, 114, 117, 129, 132, 144 and 156. The (...) (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) My guess is that "Neon Orange" is an opaque color, since it does not include the "Tr." qualifier. I'd also guess that it does not actually glow under blacklight, as it is listed as "Neon" instead of "Flourescent" (i.e. it's probably just a (...) (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Yeah... and prior to today, my composite list (from 3 other lists: ldraw, peeron & BL) only had 79 entries. So it looks like the color list just grew by ~40%. Now we just need to align this against the other lists. Ray (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) cool! just for fun, i noticed that Lego # 1, "white" is actually pantone code "CoolGrey 1 C" and has RGB of 242/243/242, not 255/255/255 of 'true computer white' in paint programs; probably deals with the print or plastic 'milkiness' of the (...)

(...) On further comparison, "Lig. Yellowich Orange" is the only color that uses the spelling "yellowich", while every other use is spelled "yellowish". I propose that the C-spelling is a typo and should be corrected. (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) What's wrong with it? "Lig." is an abbreviation for "light" (not the one we're used to, but...), "yellowich" is only one letter different from "yellowish"...ah, you must object to their use of the strange foreign word "orange", right? ;P (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) It should be, since most modern printers use cyan, magenta, and yellow ink for color printing (I'm guessing "K" is for "blacK"?).
