Could I enter two colors and blend them together?  
Maybe by taking the returned hex color or something?

i.e.

color1 = red;  
color2 = yellow;  
resultcolor = green;

would that work?

or would it end up doing this

color1 = red;  
color2 = yellow;  
resultcolor = rellow;  
(in other words, not work)
