You could write the loop like this:
for red, green, blue in [(r, g, b) for r in list for g in list for b
in list]:
s += blah blah blah
but, arguably, that isn't easier to read or understand. It's a matter
of taste, I guess.
As has already been mentioned, list is not a good name, because it is
already used.
Also, personally, I find it easier to read strings that aren't
constructed with concatenation, but using pythons string formatting
gubbins:
'<h1 style="background: #%s%s%s">' % (red, green, blue)
Again, I think this is mostly personal preference.
