Seems like a weird thing you are trying to do...limit an artist's choice of colours?
Maybe you can describe what it is you are actually doing and we might provide a better solution. "limit the color choices" is a solution (to which I'm offering one possible approach), but what is the actual *problem* you are trying to solve?
Anyways, you can create a custom palette, edit the existing Ubuntu palette and/or delete the other palettes all in that directory. The palette file is simply a text file (edit with Notepad or try using a good text editor). Format is pretty straight forward.

I'm going to guess that you mean you want to share colour palettes? If so, I think you can create your own. See the palette dir (default windows is below).

I made a screencast a while back regarding custom color paletts. You could make one for your students and only include the colors that you want.
