Okay, this has been driving me crazy. This thing is blue and brownish-gold, and I have proof!
Here is the original version of the picture/dress.

Spoiler: show

Here is an image created using the eyedropper tool in paint.net on the blue/white section of the dress (which allows you to find the exact color of a part of an image, and use it elsewhere). What color is it?

Spoiler: show

That was blue, right? Here's another image, this time using the eyedropper on the gold/black lace.

Spoiler: show

Now that was brown, right? Therefore, the dress is blue and brown, in this picture. Not talking about the versions that have been saturated to change the color.

Well, this morning I saw blue and black, then this afternoon white and gold and now blue and black again. It all has to do with color perception, lighting and such, I believe.

The problem is that the lighting is off.

It probably was, but you have a very facetious example.

I can't unsee white and gold unless the picture is REALLY exaggerated

@SnifitGuy: I feel you, this has gotten a bit annoying. The dress was confirmed blue and black.

^ What colors are this dress? White and gold? Or blue and black? No one can agree.

According to this article http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/dr ... ld-5243210 we're all right because our eyes are overreacting or something. I personally think the dress is white and gold, but the lighting is bad so it looks blue and black. What do you think?
Oh. My. God! Not this again! I had my fill of this in school. I am truly sick of this dress. It does nothing but cause debate, and people are so obsessed with finding out its true colors. I may not know the true colors of the dress, but I know the true colors of the debates creator.

The color was known since ever, the interesting part is the effect it has upon different lightning

The true colors of the creator are white and therefore he's superior to every race who complains about this, let's move on.

I know lol, I don't think I've ever seen something so minor become popular this fast.

God, it's all over Youtube. At first it wasn't that bad, but now, it's EVERYWHERE. Why are people still talking about it when the color has already been confirmed.

As a matter of fact, how'd this get so big?

I just posted what I did to try to derail it or stop the pointless crap. Now I failed...

I never thought about this, actually.

Zeldamaster12 · Postby **Zeldamaster12** » Sun Mar 01, 2015 9:06 pm

But was it white and gold or black and blue?

Postby **Julia Pseudo** » Sun Mar 01, 2015 9:24 pm

It is black and blue in real life, but it is not distinctly colored like that in the original photo.

Zeldamaster12 · Postby **Zeldamaster12** » Sun Mar 01, 2015 9:31 pm

I know the color has already been confirmed, I'm making a joke about how people are constantly saying "but is it blue and black or white and gold?" on everything.
