A few colors need improvement

[garrettw]

I love the idea behind this, but after looking at the project's site, I see a few things I would change.

1. Your red (#ff4136) looks more like the inside of a grapefruit than a true red. I'm not saying it should be #ff0000 at all, but it seems to have too much orange influence for a color merely called "red". Wikipedia even lists two colors on a page called "Shades of orange" (Tomato and Bittersweet) that are fairly close to your red.
2. Your maroon (#85144b) is quite a departure from true maroon -- more like a burgundy. This webpage defines the two colors in the same way I would.
3. If your black is not #000 (and I'm not saying it should be), then shouldn't your white similarly not be #fff? I probably wouldn't make it #eee, but I might do anything from #f8f8f8 to #fdfdfd.

Making a PR to fix these colors. Also realized the bigger issue is that it should be simpler to change the colors (they should be defined in one place, not in multiple files...). The colors should be defined in the variables file then every other file should reference those. I'll create a new issue/address that there. But for now I'll make a PR to fix the colors.

Making a PR to address the red/maroon issues. I personally think it's okay to leave the white at #fff. This shouldn't be an issue

Looks great, does anyone know of a way to easily check the red for AAA compliance, as there seems to be no compliant combinations for red in master
