These names don't match the names on the above web site.
I'm guessing the names are actually the Bricklink names. Is this right?
Here are the entries from http://www.isodomos.com/ColorTree/Roots that I think
are correct:
| Bricklink | Peeron | LDraw | Lego Name |
| Name & Num | Name | Number | & Number |
|-------------------+-----------------+----------+-----------------------|
| Yellow 3 | Yellow | 14 | Bright yellow 24 |
| Orange 4 | Orange | 25 | Bright orange 106 |
| Red 5 | Red | 4 | Bright red 21 |
| Blue 7 | Blue | 1 | Bright blue 23 |
| Medium Blue 42 | MdBlue | | Medium blue 102 |
| Medium Green 37 | MdGreen | | Medium green 29 |
| Green 6 | Green | 2 | Dark green 28 |
| Reddish Brown 88 | RedBrown | 70 | Reddish brown 192 |
| Nougat | Nougat | | Nougat 18 |
| White 1 | White | 15 | White 1 |
| Very Light | | | |
| Bluish Gray 99 | LtStone | | Light stone grey 208 |
| Light | | | |
| Bluish Gray 86 | MdStone | 71 | Medium stone grey 194 |
| Dark | | | |
| Bluish Gray 85 | DkStone | 72 | Dark stone grey 199 |
| Black 11 | Black | 0 | Black 26 |
| Trans-Yellow 19 | TrYellow | 46 or 18 | Tr. Yellow 44 |
| Trans-Red 17 | TrRed | 36 | Tr. Red 41 |
| Trans-Dark | | | |
| Blue 14 | TrBlue | 33 | Tr. Blue 43 |
| Trans-Light | | | |
| (Dove?) Blue 15 | TrLtBlue | 41 | Tr. Lg blue 42 |
| Trans-Green 20 | TrGreen | 34 | Tr. Green 48 |
| Trans-White | | | |
| (Clear) 12 | Clear | 47 | Transparent 40 |
I took an educated guess about "Transparent Dove Blue", but didn't want to guess
about "Beige" or "Light Nougat".
It would be cool if Jake to look at this list and see if it's correct. ;-)
Thanks,
Jeff
