How to add colours to your server Message of the day (motd)

To set colours in MOTD simply use the following colour codes then write your text after them:
\u00A70 BLACK
\u00A71 DARK BLUE
\u00A72 DARK GREEN
\u00A73 DARK AQUA
\u00A74 DARK RED
\u00A75 DARK PURPLE
\u00A76 GOLD
\u00A77 GRAY
\u00A78 DARK GRAY
\u00A79 INDIGO
\u00A7a GREEN
\u00A7b AQUA
\u00A7c RED
\u00A7d PINK
\u00A7e YELLOW
\u00A7f WHITE
\u00A7k Obfuscated
\u00A7l Bold
\u00A7m Strikethrough

Here is an example:
a motd set as:

Would look like this in the servers browser:
Dark Blue Gold Pink
