This is at least the second time this time-wasting nonsense has been posted to FR. With all the other crap being pulled by the Obama regime do we really need this uselessness?
Yeah, but what did you see at first look?
I saw a blue (much lighter than navy or royal blue)....together with a brownish-gray or grayish brown.
The eyes have it.....but, then again.....
Leni
Blue with white stains....
Right. It’s white and gold looking straight onto my computer but if I tilt the computer up, it’s black and blue.
So Bill Clinton is lurking under the name GraceG...
I also see a light blue but the trim looks gold to my eyes.....
I’m visiting the Clinton Presidential Library in April.
(not making this up)
I can’t wait to walk in and ask “where’s the blue dress?”
I think it’s Black Watch Tartan.
.
From my laptop, from my cell and from my iPad at home it’s blue and black.
From my office computer it is White and gold.
Go figure!
I really don’t care.

For what it’s worth.
There has always been a huge problem with how colors are defined and displayed digitally.
I have no doubt that if anybody saw this “Dress” with their own eyes in public, regardless of the light, they would all see the same thing.
They can put it under different light, red, blue, yellow etc, but as an analog imagine it would be seen the same way.
If anything this is a “trick” that has exposed the problems with converting colors on differing platforms.
When I saw the images on TV, it was always Blue and Black. When I went to the website it looked more white and gold.
It’s NOT your eyes, it’s the technology.
This reminds me, I have always wondered how to describe colors to a blind person.
It was even on the local news here in soviet Red Hampshire tonight...what the hell is wrong with people???
