    mColorBasic["Peach"] = "#FFDAB9";
    mColorBasic["Yellow"] = "#FFFF00";
    mColorBasic["Wood"] = "#DEB887";
              
    // end list of colors
              
    for(key in mColorBasic) html.append('<div class="color-option" title="' + key + '"><span color="' + mColorBasic[key] + '" style="background-color: ' + mColorBasic[key] + ' !important;"></span></div>');
              
    html.find('span').click(function(e) {
      callback($(this).attr('color'));
      editor.closeDropDown(true);
      e.preventDefault();
    });
              
    editor.createDropDown(caller, "color-picker", html);
  }
})});

How do you change the current colors ?
For example we'll use the color white :
Code:
mColorBasic["White"] = "#FFFFFF";

mColorBasic["White"] : Sets the name of the color ( it appears in a tooltip on hover )
#FFFFFF : Is the hex color for white ( use this to get the hex color )


Installing the Style

Go to :
Administration Panel > Display > Colors > CSS stylesheet

Copy and paste the following code :
Code:
/* Color palette icons */
.color-option {
  display: inline-block !important;
  width: 15px !important;  /* width of the icon */
  height: 15px !important;  /* height of the icon */
  border: 2px solid #fff !important;  /* white border around the icon */
  margin: 3px !important;   /* space between each icon */
  box-shadow: 0 0 2px #778899;   /* shadow */
  cursor: pointer !important;
}

.color-option span{
  display: block !important;
  width: 15px !important;  /* width of the icon */
  height: 15px !important;  /* height of the icon */
}

.color-option, .color-option span {
  border-radius: 2px;  /* roundness */  
}

/* Whole palette - the width influences how many icons appear */
.sceditor-dropdown.sceditor-color-picker {
  width: 200px !important;  /* width of the palette */
  height: 100px !important;  /* height of the palette */
  padding: 5px !important;
  border-radius: 5px !important;
}

Then submit and it is done !  :wouhou:
