If you're not bothered about too much control, and just want a generally darker version of a colour, then:

col = (col & 0xfefefe) >> 1;

Is a nice quick way to halve a colour value (assuming it's packed as a byte per channel, obviously).

In the same way brighter would be:

col = (col & 0x7f7f7f) << 1;
