Honestly, the whole "cyan/dark blue/indigo/purple/violet end of the spectrum confuses me ßelals Girl Send a noteboard - 02/03/2013 02:42:15 PM

Where does one end and another begin? If light blue (cyan) is a legitimate color on the spectrum, why aren't the "light" versions of other colors, like pink or peach or lavender? Or if cyan is "blue," then what is the color we commonly think of as blue (dark blue)? Is it not a real color the way purple isn't? Or is it indigo? Or is indigo "purple?" Because I always thought purple was violet!

Ugh, I give up. I'm just gonna go with what the color crayons say :P

Also, how do you make orange on a TV set?

That was 'octarine', IIRC it was 'fluorescent greenish-yellow-purple' *NM* - 26/02/2013 12:10:52 PM 202 Views
