RGB Color
You can indicate color by using RGB mode too. eg. #336699 is a nice blue google likes to use. It stands for 33 red, 66 green, and 99 blue in hexadecimal. Here's a RGB color picker

Bud, you don't need to put your margin vals on separate lines, do it like this:

margin: 20px auto auto 0;

keeping the cvalues combined like that makes for faster loading, and cleaner code. The vals are set in the order: top right bottom left. so what I typed above can replace line 8 9 and 10 in yours.
