Binary RGB:
RGB colours are represented in the low 24 bits of a 32-bit number
8bits for red
8bits for green
8bits for blue
to convert 8-bit unsigned (0..255) R,G, and B values to an RGB value
you need to shift the red 16 bits and the green 8 bits to the left
this means multiplying red by 65536 and green by 256 and then adding
them all up.
one easy way to do this is to write them in hex.
