How can I apply colors from the W3.CSS Flat UI theme to text?

I've been trying to apply the pomegranate color from the W3.CSS Flat UI theme to text, but it doesn't work. I've tried w3-text-pomegranate and w3-text-flat-pomegranate. Is it possible to apply theme colors to text using the class method?

That class applies background-color, and color of.

.w3-flat-pomegranate {color:#fff; background-color:#c0392b;}

So you have to create your own custom class to apply color: #c0392b; and background-color: to go with it.

I ended up just applying the color via a style. It's a shame that W3.CSS is limited in this way.

I wouldn't use those class colors, i consider them a bad idea, i would use a general colour class colorstyle1, colorstyle2 etc then i could change that general color class to whatever style colour i want, instead of removing every w3-red and changing to w3-blue on every element using it.
