Hi Brian,
There's no magic to it. Straight from the W3C:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/WD-css3-color-20010305#numerical
The format of an RGB value in hexadecimal notation is a '#' immediately
followed by either three or six hexadecimal characters. The three-digit
RGB notation (#rgb) is converted
Hey
Off the top of my head:
# cc9900 = #c90
# cc8800 = #c80
# dd2255 = #d25
Just take the 1,3 5 characters of the string.
If the 6 chr hex is not paired then this
#e6dfe2 as #ede will be the same as #eeddee

Referring here to using #FFF instead of #FF for white as an example.
AFAIK, the shorthand notation will only work with twin pairs of digits
From what I can tell, IT IS NOT limited to paired hexes - See
http://www.december.com/html/spec/color3hex1.html - this pages lists 512
colors, the next another 1024 colors, the next another 1024, and the last
yet another 1024 for a total of 3584 colors
That is more than the paired sets I believe

I did a lot of research several years ago in the use of color in user
interfaces that will be viewed by color blind people. The results we got
showed that a wide range of colors works better for them than a narrow
range. Of course it is not a good idea to uses exclusively bright red

The great thing about CSS is that you can specify what devices see what
stylesheet. So write a stylesheet using all the colors in the rainbow
for screen, and write one using the websafe variety for handhelds.
