Square A and B....are the same color.

If you dont belive me put it in paint or something and cut and drag square A over square B.

Put it in a program and drag it over. They are the exact same color.

[DolmolmKing]

my picture must have just died on me, if you really need to see it, just right click on the red x, highlight the url, and paste it in the address bar to see it.

[Nai_Calus]

It's not that freaky. *shrug* It's like the age-old trick of wearing dark lipstick to make your teeth look whiter. Contrast does some rather interesting things. ^^ I love optical illusions. XD

[Monomate]

actually, they're not the same color...they're different colors contrasted to look the same...not really that weird when you think about...

[s.TiNgEr]

or he might have ment that the square A and the letter B are the same color....or is that what you said? O_o;

[Kent]

The two squares, marked A and B, are the exact same color. Same RGB values.

I havn't had a good laugh in a while ..... LOL !! HEEHEE, that is pretty funny! Anywho, Kent, I used photoshop to look at the pic and I looked up the color values. Not to burst your bubble, but square A is 104 for all three values, whilst square B is 107 for all three values. not exact, but close enough. And illusions are cool.

Technically, black and white are not real colors...

So you lied. They are not the same colors. Next time, if you say shade, then yes, it will be the same.

I don't know what you did wrong, but the R B and G are all at 107 for both squares. Check again.

rune is right, white is a combination of all the colours mixed together (strange but its true, its somthing you cant do wit paint, the prog or actual paint) and black is where there is no colour at all, so they cant exactly be defined as colours (go english spelling)

That's half right. There are two methods of color: Pigment and wavelength. They are almost opposite in the sense of white-black, and sideways for the rest.

Wavelength is a system based on many shades of three colors: Red, Green, and Blue. This is not because only those three colors exist, but because the human eye pays the most attention to red, and because blue and green are at even intervals along the rest of the two thirds of the human visual spectrum. The 'high' end of blue is violet. When things go higher, they are 'ultra-violet,' AKA UV. The 'low' end is red. When things go below red they are 'infra-red.' IR, you know? Infra-red is literally heat. UV is what we commonly know of as radiation, and, from what I remember from way back when I took physics, radio, TV, and Microwave are up there too. Collectively, all of that crap is known as the Electromagnetic Spectrum. When you mix all of the colors in the EM spectrum they become white, while the absense of color (or rather the absence of reflected color) is seen as black.

Pigment is based off of our primary colors, or a four color system (CMYK: Cyan, Maroon, Yellow, Black), case depending. All colors mixed in pigment are black, while an absense of pigment is seen as white (this is why albino people are all white except for their eyes. They have no pigment.)

That was a bit rambly but I hope it was a little interesting.
