Try 1000+ more. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

This is based on a blog post by Jeff LaMarche:

http://iphonedevelopment.blogspot.com/2008/11/more-colors-more-compact.html

I used his convenient macro to copy the entire compact list of colors from Wikipedia (the macro was convenient because I did it all with regex [Yes, I parsed HTML with regex and lived]).

Use and abuse at will. This repo should stay up to date with the latest colors as I go look at the swatches and realize something is missing. I will also occassionally add colors (like fedexPurple).
