Default Cell Colors

I've noticed some worksheets that others have made where the cells are a
color different than the options from the drop down menu of fill colors in my
excel. Is there a color wheel or something in excel that I can get use to
find more color options for cell color fill?

Thanks!

Going to 'modify color' will make it different.
Or XL 2007 has more colors.
