What colour is this?

Can anyone tell me the exact shade of brown that is on the background of this flag, not the brown on the camel.

Weird question, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

"Exact shade of brown"

Can you clarify exactly what sort of answer you are after? What are the standards of "exactness" in play here?

Khaki? Sand? I don't know what you're looking for. Exact colors don't have universal names.

Manila or Khaki, I can't tell you 'precisely', as I haven't memorised the difference between "Color 856780696697" and "Color 838475955697", and paint companies generally have different names for their colors.

Beige maybe? Even google imaging "beige" gets you a crapton of different shades though.

Papyrus with a hint of Urine, that's as exact as I can get.

Antebellum.


R:190.76
G:175.37
B: 79.58


Tannery.

R:200.34
G:160.72
B:110.88



You mix these two to get "Biege browny coffee ice cream colour"(named by Skyrimus):

R:187
G:163
B:97


And the song as a bonus:

Wow, that's a cool website. May have to use that again oneday. Thanks! :)

In case your wondering why I need the colour is because I'm designing a flag.

Background: the colour in question
Border: Metalic blue
Black cross

If anyone feels the urge to create it for me your welcome. :P

This site seems to think it's "Laser".

Or maybe "Husk".

Or "Gimblet".
