Any Colour you like, as long as its .NET

In .NET applications you can make any colour you like be supplying the R, G, and B values into the System.Drawing.Color structure structure. However, the color structure in .NET has a set of predefined colors.

The Color structure contains quite a few color names, however, reading the names on some of these colors does not make it immediately apparent what the color looks like. As such, I have exported a list of all the colours that are defined in the System.Drawing.Color structure's enum System.Drawing.KnownColor.
