    resolved

    You ever wondered why everybody has a different Favorite Color?!?
    Thats becouse For me Green is what for you looks like blue...
    however youve learned on school that "THIS" color is green and thats why we all say its green while actually it looks like blue for you!
    Damn.. this is deep...


    Conclusion: We all have the same favorite color! We just call it different.

    I remember having a very long and involved discussion with some friends of mine a long time ago all about how we interpret colours. My friend mentioned that she knew someone who got black and blue the wrong way around all his life, and I said that if that was true how did he know, as he would still have been educated calling them the correct colours.

    For me green is green, and so is red and brown.

    Blue, violet, mauve and purple are all the same as each other too.

    This is why my favourite colours are strong, bold and bright colours - I can tell them apart then!

    PS: To whoever moved my thread to the Generator forum, I agree that it is meant to be there, trouble is nobody else is to answer it!

    Are you speaking about the green color of certain design drugs?

    What do you mean, my friend Cruise? That my favourite color is blue? Well actually it is NOT!

    Is a bit like smells... why some ppl hate the smell of roses? Maybe because they smell **** instead of roses! (Woops excusi the language, prego!)...

    Phooka: For instance... Your favorite color is green...
    But mine is blue..
    Im saying that we maybe have the same favorite color (ie: red) since you see green as red and i see blue as red but we dont know this becouse we are told to call it green and/or blue... Got it?

    Well actually yes I did... and it has a moral attached to it... is just normal that we humans do not understand each other... we can't even SEE things like each other!

    My fave color is blue but I do have a thing for dark purple as well. It's one of those colors that you don't see often on the web and it has many complimantary colors as well

    But I htink it's quite good to experiment with different colors and combine them as often as you can..what might seem awful in the beginning when you view from a different angle or after some time you find that it works really well.

    I didn't like the "yellow" background here in the FK when I firstly joined ... now I can't even go to another BB without feeling almost uncomfortable.

    Yeah.... I spend too much time here

    probably not - cause we are all living inside our own imaginations - in a minute we are all gonna wake up and realise that this was all a dream!

    I kow what you mean cruise, though your theory is not valid.

    The different colors look different to us because their frequency is different. our eyes absorb this and pass it on to our brains.

    If there was apossiblity that everyones brain processes this differently, there should be persons on earth who are able to see infrared light (ifrared light's freqeuncy doesn't get absorbed), right?

    Well, i've never met somone who could do that, so i think it answers your question.
