Describe your problem and how to reproduce it:
In the Applied Visual Design challenge - Learn about tertiary colors, the instructions state that orange and raspberry are not browser recognized color names, even though orange is in fact, identifiable by modern major browsers, the problem I think, lies in the fact that the hex code given for orange i.e. #FF7D00 and orange are different colors, which means that orange leads to a color which is visually orange, but different to a computer.
There can be 2 things we can do to solve this:

@beaucarnes Would you have any input on this issue?
This does need to be fixed. It should be clarified that while 'orange' is a color name recognized by browsers, the shade of orange does not exactly correspond to the official tertiary orange color. After a little research, it seems that our hex code for the tertiary orange could be off a little. According to this wikipedia entry, it should be #FF7F00. Though the exact hex code does not impact the actual lesson of this challenge.
I can fix this.
Both the orange color and raspberry colors were incorrect.
Orange was rgb(255, 125, 0). But since 255/2 = 127.5, it should be rgb(255, 127, 0). Same for the raspberry color. The wikipedia entry linked above confirms this.
I fixed this in my PR.
