<DIV><FONT size=2 face="Franklin Gothic Book">Thanks for the advice. As someone
with lots of experience in print, and virtually none in web, I find it easier to
put together proposed web pages in Scribus, and have the general theme/look
approved before beginning the coding in html and css. Of course I use all the
browsers, including ie, to preview the html.</FONT><BR><BR>As for hex

<DIV><FONT size=2 face="Franklin Gothic Book">I could certainly make a palette
of attractive colors for the web pages, but I wouldn't know their
hex values to transfer them to css. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face="Franklin Gothic Book">I know there are workarounds,
including making a palette in GIMP and writing down the hex values, but
then I couldn't plug those numbers into Scribus to get an accurate
color. Creating a palette isn't the issue.</FONT> </DIV>
