Yes, Jmol looks great.

In RasMol2.7 the colors are defined as shown in
http://www.imb-jena.de/~jr/VisAnPred/RasMol/Myoglobin/img18.gif
other color schemes are

http://www.imb-jena.de/~jr/VisAnPred/PSEmolmol.gif

http://www.imb-jena.de/~jr/VisAnPred/PSEprepi.gif
http://www.imb-jena.de/~jr/VisAnPred/PSEjmol.html

this kind of green as used in PSErasmol.gif for Mg is OK for me, but I 
would like to alter the RasMol scheme to

select carbon
color [0,255,0]

and to compensate Cl has to change to

select chlorine
color [153,255,102]

and additionally I prefere P in magenta

select phosphorus
color magenta
