TNG Color Scheme

My favorite FireFox plugin of all time, ColorZilla, now has the ability to analyze the colors of a web page and create a corresponding palette.

Here’s a sampling of out of the box color scheme for TNG  pages with default styles governed by genstyle.css:

I’m not sure what the rhyme or reason was for the choice of colors.

Let’s “pick” it apart:
