Designing with the web palette
The primary advantage to designing with the web palette is that you know that the colors in your graphics (and HTML web page elements) will not dither or shift on 8-bit monitors. If that audience is still a concern, you can select colors from the web palette when you are creating your graphics and web page elements. The web palette is available in all web authoring tools via a handy pop-up palette usually located right near where you need to enter a color value. In Photoshop, you can load the web-safe palette into the swatches for easy access.
