Is there any master list (or at least a large list) either created by forum staff or by the users of the forums that has all the colors that can be represented by the coding of this forum?

The named colors are used directly in the HTML generated by vBulletin. It therefore follows that all the colors available are the same as those supported by browsers. (http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colornames.asp)

In addition to those 147 colors, there are over 16 million more available if you are familiar with how to use the hex codes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_colors#Hex_triplet).

As an aside: You can use any name for the color, but it's not guaranteed that it'll show the same on all computers and browsers if it's not one of those 147.

An example, using my username as the color.
Here's one with hex triplets (it happens to be the same color on my computer as the previous sentence).

Code in the box (if you need to check how to use them):

Yeah, please don't use things such as your username as a colour and please refrain from encouraging others to do so. We have enough trouble as it is trying to get the forums to (relatively) conform to HTML standards as it is (every forum that allows code does).
