Color sample website

A number of years ago I put together this webpage for my mercedes club
190SL Group - Colors - Photo Samples

While I am not a programmer, I wanted to do something similar for my 911 friends. I have started collecting photos and am building a website. My plan is to have the name of the color, the color code and some sample photos.

This is what I have so far...I am working blue first then i'll expand it.

I didn't see any Gemini Blue cars -- a search here will find several examples.

This thread shows my Gemini Early car and Gulf Blue car I owned before it:

This is great, keep them coming. I'll add these in. I think I'll limit the colors to only 1965 to 1989 models...otherwise, it'll become overwhelming.

Does anyone know if the same exact color was offered from 2 different companies? ie, Glasurit and Lesonal? So Meissen Blue would be Code XYZ for Glasurit and ABC from Lesonal?
