>what is color theory

Is the whole world losing grasp of reality?

I saw it as black and blue all of last night.

Then I woke up the morning and it was white and gold for a quick second.

And now it's been blue and black all day.

the way you perceive the colors in the photo has to do with how your brain correctly, or incorrectly(white and gold) guesses the effect of lighting and shadows have on a subject in the main view. The reason you probably still think it's white and gold is because of image retention. You are too used to the context that you think it is white and gold that it is difficult or near impossible to change your brains viewpoint of it

>>9504456
My brother is actually colourblind and saw it as purple and brown.

how the fuck is that white and gold

still not white

just very bright blue

and not really gold, more dark brown-green

I saw it as white and gold when I woke up this morning but by 11 it was blue and black and has been since.

So this whole dress thing is just the normalfag version of babby's first troll, right?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_constancy

does anybody else see light blue and brown?

>>9504499
It's the other way around. Do you faggots even /p/?

>>9504530
samesies

think how many people will now buy this though man

>>9504490
lol another person throwing around color theory

>>9504453

Blue is fair enough, but I don't see how anyone can claim that those stripes are black. If that's black it has a lot more yellow in it than black generally does.

I've been away from the internet for two days and now I see this shit everywhere. What did I miss?

It's just an ugly looking blue dress with black trim, right?

i dont get it

>>9504574
what if it was just marketing?

>>9504549

>>9504549

Yes. How anyone can claim that it's either white and gold OR blue and black is beyond me.

>>9504588
Holy fuck do you lack some relational part of your brain or something. Yes if you took a colour picker on that image it'd be black-yellow, but if you do see it as blue-black, you should be able to see clearly that the yellowness is from the extra light, the stripes are actually yellow

IT"S JUST A REALLY BRIGHTLY LIT PHOTO WHY IS THIS NATIONAL NEWS. WHY ARE PEOPLE CLAIMING THIS DRESS IS GIVING THEM ANEURISMS?!

funny

>>9504769
millennials are retarded
so are you for using capital letters and making that shitty post

>>9504778
At least I use capitals. Are you allergic to them or a lazy fuck?

ITS A TROLL

ITS THE BIGGEST FUCKING TROLL SINCE 9/11

>>9504551
No it's not. Correctly identifying color under different hues is a scale. If you see white and gold your eyes are retarded and you should only stick to black and white clothing.

POSTING IN A STICKY BREAD

>>9504588
That's because black absorbs light, doesn't reflect it. If it was gold then it would reflect the light.

Posting in a sticky

People who see black & gold are trolling.

"If you go to the gold/black area [of the dress photo] and blow the image way up, people who see gold will see that the clusters of pixels are basically reds (pinks) and greens (olives)," McLeod went on. "They merge to give the summated color. If you have red-green deficiency, you’ll see just black."

Take this test, post results, and what colors you think the dress are.

http://www.xrite.com/online-color-test-challenge

I guarantee everyone who says black and blue are color deficient.

No point in having two separate but identical sites.

>>9505134
You are literally retarded. People aren't saying the correct color of the dress, that we know from other photos of the dress that aren't washed out and taken in artificial (yellow) lighting (that is, it's a fucking blue dress with black stripes) because they're color blind. It's because they're doing second level processing in their brains to contextualize what they're seeing. They know that without the yellow light and bad photography that it would be a dark blue and a neutral black. What are you even trying to say right now?

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

What mod is shitting up /fa/ now? We're too small for this level of shitting on the bed. Cock off and ban the spammers, this doesn't need to be a thread. WHO THE FUCK STICKIES TROLL POSTS?

>>9505198
Not color blind, color deficient. Take the test nigga.

I can sort of understand why people say it's blue, it's white has a bit of a blueish hue to it.

But how the fuck do they see black in this? Am i being rused right now?

>>9505212
please stop

>>9505212
this
i can see how the blue looks a little white because it's so light but gold hell nah no way

>>9505206

There was literally a thread on every board on 4chan when I left for work this afternoon.

>>9505134
suprised myself but i see black and blue

now what?

>>9505223
THEN BAN THE SPAMMERS AND PRUNE THE THREADS
A STICKY DOES NOT SOLVE THIS

>>9505206
because people like you get butthurt

This man is clearly wearing a blue shirt! derp

>>9504551

the dress, in real life, is black and blue. check it on amazom you stupid shit-eyed cunt

>>9505210
Grow a complete cortex, nigger. There is no need for some dumbass, unsourced internet test on anyone's vision. Either you applied the context, like a functional human brain, or you didn't and you're a moron.

>>9505242
we all get that

however, the actual dress IS blue and black. anyone who sees white and gold has a shitty brain which is altering their perception of it. how does that feel?

>>9505232

You can't call it containment when almost every board has one

>>9505253
for our board dipshit this is containment. Why would we run to say /v/ to discuss this?
Are you really that fucking dumb?
lol

>>9505256

I can literally make five more of these on /fa/ right now if you want

The mod probably stickied that and went back to finish posting on his tumblr about systemic oppression of transgendered furries.

>>9505252

i dont think you understand how images work. the color in that picture is nowhere near black, its a dirty gold shade.

>>9505232
>containment thread

just fucking ban people like real mods do

>>9504453
It looks white and gold, but the lighting is fucking crazy. This is the most amazing troll in the past 5 years on the internet

>>9505275

jesus christ you're an idiot.


you can tell this >>9505242
man is not really wearing a blue shirt, correct? it is white, but when you take the color off paint or some shit obviously it will show up as blue. but, your interpret it (correctly) as being a white shirt. (if you dont you're beyond hopeless, i'm sorry)

so what you did there with the color you posted was fucking pointless. sure, i know it looks to be gold when you extract the color from paint. but look at pic fucking related ya god damn deficient dipshit

>>9505256
Sure is contained, since there's five new threads about it.

>>9505289

>another brain dead shit poster thought he could act smart

obviously it LOOKS to be one way, but seriously if you have half a brain you can determine the dress, in reality, is black and blue.

why is this stickied?

>>9505249
>he doesn't have perfect color vision

Has no one ever heard of white balance?

>>9505298
Your gonna tell me that looks like the dress in the middle in OPs picture? (color wise)

>>9505283
It's been said numerous times why it's stickied;
This is a containment thread for /fa/ and /fa/ alone. I've had to delete over 40 threads of this since last night.

>>9505305

it is the SAME dress

it just has some shitty lighting/filter in the photos

http://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/1492
You're all dumbasses for arguing over this.

>>9505298
That's such an ugly colored dress, it hurts my eyes. This makes me want to wish it was actually gold.

>>9505298
This color >>9505275 was not extracted from paint, it's simply zoomed in 800% on an area of the dress.
If you see that as black you are beyond hopeless.

>>9505330
how you COMPLETELY missed the point is beyond me

wow, just fucking wow

it doesn't matter what you get when you zoom in 800%. zoom in 800000% and i still won't give a fuck. the dress is blue and black. there are images of it in other contexts where its pretty clear the "white and gold" camp is applying a false correction to the shitty photo.

>>9505316
It might be the same dress but with the lighting it looks nothing like that. At first glance are you telling me you see dark blue in OPs picture?

So the dress is blue and black but with the crazy bright over lighting for the picture makes it look white and gold. You can all go home now.

>>9505340

which one? obviously the far right is dark blue. the middle is where the shit lighting comes in and starts fucking with your perception. but the middle one is still arguably bluer than it is white, and dark enough where you can assume the lighting is giving the black a goldish tint. the far left isnt even worth looking at with all the effects applied to it.

>>9505339
>where its pretty clear the "white and gold" camp is applying a false correction to the shitty photo.
so youre saying those who are seeing the photo as what it shows in terms of actual color content are doing it wrong.

>>9505340
Yes. The first two are fucking edited digitally, you stupid turd of a human phallus.

>>9505345
See I have no idea which is the original one, so AT FIRST GLANCE not noticing the lighting I dont see how its possible to say that the dress looks dark blue and black. unless you notice the lighting and really look at it.

>>9505350
Yes. Because their brains are underfunctioning.

>>9505325
Not as big of an idiot as you are for having anything to do with XKCD.

>>9505339
So your eyes see this >>9505275 as black then? Simple question, yes or no?

>>9505212
>>9505275
IT LOOKS GOLD BECAUSE ITS A SHITTY PHOTO WITH A FILTER AND INCORRECT WHITE BALANCE

IT'S BLACK

>>9505360
>Yes. Because their brains are underfunctioning.
explain to me how seeing what is actually there is malfunctioning in your book.

>>9505353
How the fuck would I know which ones are altered or why would I care that much you fucking spaz

>>9504453
The question is, which one is the real photo?

How can colors be real if our eyes aren't real?

This is the official /fa/ version of Xaiver's chair, isn't it?

>>9505370

>IT LOOKS GOLD
that's the fucking point you autistic faggot. it doesn't matter if the actual dress is black, red, orange, green, or purple. it looks white and gold

>>9505368
Because you're not seeing what's actually there. Seeing what's actually there includes the context, which is granted by the clearly oversaturated store in the background, that gives the clues to what the color is in reality and not in a bad photograph. Those colors, in reality, are blue and black. Seeing the raw data of the dress (which is not included in any of the pictures in OP, because ALL THREE of them were edited to be EVEN MORE washed out and autobalanced towards gold/white) is ignoring the raw data of the whole photo, as well as implied information gathered from life experience, and so forth. It's underfunctioning. It's ignoring information to such a degree as to generate a false interpretation.

>not following your favourite porn artists on tumblr so they can explain this wizardy

step up, senpai

>>9505437
Well yeah, it's gold, not yellow.

>>9505505
That explanation doesn't work because both of the greys in the pic are... the same grey. People are seeing wildly different colors that don't match up. If it were purple/brown and black/blue discrepancies, that would be one thing; but this is blue/black and white/gold -- which one is the diametric opposite.

I think it's just trolling by white/gold persons.

>>9505505
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

>>9505525
No. I really did see it as white/gold as a thumbnail for a second or so in one of the undoctored version. It's possible, it has to do with context. Given longer than a second to look at it, my brain settled on blue/black and now I can't change that no matter how I try.

This is a troll thread, though.

>>9505525
>I think it's just trolling by white/gold persons.

Yes, countless people in countless places with no relation to each other decided to group up and troll you.

Holy shit, blue blacks are fucking dumb.

>>9504453

I hate this meme more than I hate Not User

>>9505544
Faggot, do you know what a meme is, academically?

I have always seen it as blue and black.
The thing that drives me crazy is that I cannot at all see the white and I don't understand how people can even see it as white. I get how people can see the gold. I can understand that. But there are people that even after showing them its a blue dress can see it as white.

I have seen this picture 100 different ways.
White balanced.
Messed up contrast.
Messed up brightness.
TV screen.
Computer screen.
Phone screen.
Someone at my work printed it out.

People have blasted this picture to look as white as possible but the god damn dress still looks like a lighter blue to me.

I mean, are there actually people who are not color blind that would look up at this clear sky and be like. "Look at that the sky it's pure white. This is normal in my world."

This is what gets to me now. I now know that I live in a world where half the people are like this. That they cant just look at a close up picture of a dress and even think about how the lighting could effect the colors. They just go through the world assuming that every picture they look at has at least near perfect lighting.

>>9505133
It looks gold and white to me too.
And i'm pretty good at distinguishing colors in the warm spectrum.

>>9505154
this. theres another pic of the dress under normal uninstagramed light.

>>9505593
slightly brighter lighting does not turn white into black if it did we would be living in Alice's fucking wonderland.

take the test
>>9505134

I know the dress is actually blue and black, but in that photo, it still looks white/light blue and gold to me.

If I look at the photo long enough, I can see it is overexposed blue and black, only because I now have the knowledge that the dress is blue and black. But without knowing it was blue and black, when I first saw the dress, I thought it was white and gold. And I can't stop seeing it that way.

>>9505599
Slightly brighter yellow lighting that washes out a digital image does turn black into gold, though, you fucking moron. Is this really why you keep spamming your stupid test? You don't even understand which color becomes which color.

>>9504549
I see that.

>>9504453
I woke up yesterday morning to see it at white and gold for the first time. Before my eyes, it faded into blue and black...

>tfw see White and Gold

oh wait you're a white gold retard so you're lying

>>9505565

How do you see the gold parts as black? I mean, you can see they have colour to them. So how can they be black?

Also this man is wearing a white tshirt. >>9505242

>>9505603
>yellow lighting that washes out a digital image does turn black into gold


Just because black is all colors combined together does not mean that you "perceiving" the color black as being "washed out" to gold is more valid than my only being able to distinguish gold. Think about how difficult is to convince someone who isn't colorblind that what they're seeing isn't right because they aren't colorblind as well. That's what this arguments sounds like to me. I hate to promote divisiveness as this board can do a bang up job of that in itself as you've illustrated clearly enough but though i can see the washed out blue tint on what is presumably a white base that fooled me into thinking it was something else reflecting on the dress I do not see ant black, at all. Refracted light, chromatic biases etc etc I don't know why but I'm 100% willing to believe that everyone is seeing what they claim to see and that trolls are in the minority. If someone said they saw demons instead of a dress I wouldn't dispute that. I have no right to assume that they aren't being honest or frank with me since i'm not them. I really don't.

and i'm not the guy who posted the test I just took it
Now if you guys would stop these high school shenanigans on the other hand...

>>9505627
alright, I'll spend another 20 minutes doing the fucking test so you can suck my cock

>>9505655

cry more tears cuck boy

the fact that you're so desperate to prove yourself to me show's how beta you gold/white faggots are

>>9505667
if anyone asks me what colors i see on the dress i'm just going to say "demons" from now on. since i live in predominantly christian murrica i think it'd be fitting.

If anyone is combative enough to want to fucking convince me it's not demons i will am going to lol until i can't breathe anymore.

The /fa/ inside me doesn't want to believe that someone would mix royal blue and black. At least white and gold is passable.

>>9505697
With a reinforcing notion that "the brain" thinks independently from who that body part "belongs" to as well as a lack of clarification as to what and how one would be specifically coming to the conclusion as to what color(s) that "the dress" is (rather than the photo/image of how the dress appears in it with the various factors and other images having adjustments made to the original picture itself). A situation epitomizing that the "map is not the territory".

Without mentioning as to who determines (or "diagnoses")that one would be of that condition and how is it concluded that "they" are universally "colorblind".

>If someone said they saw demons instead of a dress I wouldn't dispute that.

Without elaborating upon the specific context and source as to how and why one would state that they "see demons" and be interpreted as them implying that the dress is seen in some way as being of the condition to be categorized as a demon or that the "entity" would be somewhere in the picture. Not to mention the very connotative and denotative fusion of meaning and definition drawn upon as if "the demons" would merely and only possibly be of the singular form attributed to debunked "fairy tales"(and ultimately from a means to consume and digest that information in a manner that the accustomed way to do so with the conceptual etiquette reflected from the state of mind of the consumer would be the wrongfully "right" way of doing so)

Why are you people so mad about this shit, if you see it as blue and black, congrats you are an autist, if you see it as white and gold, congrats you are colorblind.

well, periwinklish be be exact but yeah

I see neither a complete white nor a complete blue, same thing with black and golden. This reminds me of back in middle school when I'd argue over people if something was orange or brown.

The fluoride in the water makes it black and blue

The real illusion here is our perception of time and our place in the cosmos.

>>9504453
>hurr it's black and blue, you guys are colorblind lol

It doesn't fucking matter which color it is, if the picture shows it's white (and that's not even white white) and gold, then you can't blame people for seeing fucking white and gold, period.

>>9506029

brown is just a dark shade of orange

Please be gentle

The reason people are seeing it differently is the same phenomenon as pic related.

A and B are the same color, but your brain interprets it as them being different colors due to the presence of shadow.

It's how your brain interprets it, nothing to do with colorblindness or rods or cones, just how your brain handles luminosity

>>9506101
why would a checkerboard pattern have those specific tiles be the same color

this image is EDITED

>>9506094
I guess I learnt more about colors today than I did during my whole school life
>>9506101
The real question is, how do colorblind people see it?

>>9506105
>why would a checkerboard pattern have those specific tiles be the same color

To illustrate the optical illusion you dongle.

The color of the dress varies depending on certain biológical and psychological factors that get resumed to the following:
White and gold: you are happy and have a positive way of thinking con mostró subjects.
Black and blue: you are rather sad and you usually see things in a negative depressive way.
Green and purple you are gay and suck a lot of cock.

>>9506138
>Green and purple you are gay and suck a lot of cock.

nice pseudoscience buddy but i do not suck cock

also it's black and blue

i'm color blind and have some weird shit going inside my occular cavity so i see gold and light blue
it is what it is

>>9506138
green and purple but ive always liked women

>>9504453
all of the images are of the same dress. These fuckwads are really stupid enough to not notice that the lighting on the dress changes making us perceive it as different colors although, it still is the same dress.

>>9506147
So you do suck lots of cock

the problem is you wanks are always looking at a screen be it phone, computer, tv....etc. Get out of the virtual world and into the real world. Try looking up at the sky (it's that vast blueness above your head)

Blue and yellowish. That's how I saw it the first time.

It's also the right answer. Every bozo should know it's just the lighting and the shitty camera that's messing with the real colors.

>>9505252
youre a fucking idiot. the point isn't what color the dress is, it's what color the picture of the dress is

>>9506415
The point is whether or not you can tell what color the dress actually is. The dress is black and blue. The people saying white and gold don't have the brain power to take into account the lighting and think it really is white and gold.

>>9506474
>The point is whether or not you can tell what color the dress actually is
no, the picture of the dress is white and gold. the picture is not black or blue. you're an idiot

>>9505229
Oh wow, now I can understand the people who think it's white. Huh.

Do you white/gold retards think the color scheme of this board is white instead of blue? Like the box this post is in, is that not blue? And the background, is that too light to be blue?

It's blue and black.
/problem

>>9506531
oh holy shit

>>9506531
the color of the dress isn't in question you autistic fuck, it's the color of the picture of the dress.

i thought it was purple/black at first, but now i'm convinced its actually blue/yellow

prove me wrong

>>9506547
it's obviously green and red

>>9506544
Are you retarded? If the dress is blue and black then why the fuck would the picture be any different? Just because some people interpret it differently? If this was just another optical illusion I doubt it would've spread so quickly; no, dumbshits are debating the actual fucking color.

>>9506547
>>9506553

blue as my thoughts

>>9506559
Pretty much. Sounds like he just doesn't want to be proved wrong.

>>9506559
the picture is overexposed to hell so it looks white and gold. doesn't matter what color the dress is, it could be a pure black dress with no patterns at all, but in the picture it looks white and gold, not black and blue

>>9506575
The picture is bad, yes, but the blue tints and the larger presence of a dark, almost black shade should be the first thing that is interpreted by anyone's mind. I can see how it can be seen as white and gold, I've "seen" both, but it's still far easier for it to look blue/black instead of white/gold.

Cant we all get along and say both? It is relative to what lighting the dress is in. The dress trolls us by changing colors. Its a fucking dress, and who cares

> The dress is Blaue and black

Just as a friendly reminder that this "debate" was first started on tumblr and now it has its own sticky on /fa/

this is how bad 4chan has gotten

>>9506614
tumblr has never been a four-letter word on /fa/, remember.
there are still people who use it for its intended purpose of sharing art rather than whatever boogeyman you're afraid of at the moment.

>>9504453
what's the deal with this crimson red and aubergine dress anyway?

>>9505229

>black and blue
>You see it that way because you understand the lightning makes the black reflect which gives it a more bronish-black-green color. And the blue is clearly blue


>white and gold
>hurr i dont understand lightning, here have a picture of a white shirt in a shadow it has similar color to the blue in the picture which isn't in shadow but in bright light. My stupid brain is tricking me

>>9506686
The dress is in shadow too though

>>9506696

you can see light reflecting from it

>>9506633
Haha what are you smoking!?!?

It's orange and turquoise!!!!!!!!!'


Haaaahhhhjjahshh

>>9506686
>lightning
But yeah, this is basically the problem with white and gold autists, they are incapable of grasping the nuances of how light affects the shade of what it reflects off of, without having it explained to them like they were a child.

>>9506107
they are not even the same shade of grey (hurrdurr 50 shades of grey pun)

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT THE FUSS IS?

THE DRESS LOOKS BRIGHTER WHEN BRIGHTENED

THE DRESS LOOKS DARKER WHEN DARKENED

THE DARKENED SECTION REVEALS THAT THERE IS OBVIOUSLY SOME BLUE

THE BRIGHTENED SECTION REVEALS THAT THE OTHER COLOUR IS OBVIOUSLY NOT BLACK

>>9504453
this dress is effay

It's a really ugly dress and a shit meme that I don't want to meme, even with colleagues.
wouldnotKnowYourMeme/10

My co worker and i argued about this earlier today. We both stared at the same picture, but had different answers for the colors we saw. I told him i first saw the dress black and blue but later in the day it was white and gold. Also fuck off with your white saturation or whatever the fuck theory! I saw the dress royal fucking blue and pitch black b4. Now its pure white gold now. He then pulled up three pics of the dress and he said they were all black blue, but i saw the dress in the middle pic as black blue and the other two pics were white gold sooo..... aliens

Also
TMZ contacted the designer of the dress and she confirmed it is black and blue, in case you guys wanted to know the irl color

What's the backstory here?

>>9505229
no the left is a white shirt in the shade and the right is blue

>>9506816
TMZ isn't exactly the most reliable source.

It's a different dress. Some people are so stupid and will believe anything they see on the internet.

Also, the people who scientifically explained it revealed that basically if your brain is predispositioned for staying indoors, seeing things in artificial light, etc. you see it as black and blue. So anyone who sees it as black and blue is a horribly depressed internet troll who stays inside all day long every day.

>>9506820
These stupid people are pretending like it's "funny" to act like something that's obviously white and gold is black and blue. Apparently there's something "humorous" about it.

>mfw still can't see it as anything but white & gold

>>9506831
Yeah you can't see it as anything other than what it is because you're not a lying idiot internet troll.

>>9505275
>saying derp
fucking kill yourself

I dont understand how i could see both black blue and gold white versions of the dress simultaneously. Three pics side by side 2 white gold 1back blue

>>9505618
thank you for being honest with yourself. all the other white golds are butthurt and delusional trying to enforce their faulty vision onto others

>>9506844
lol that was so funny

I can't believe you're all so gullible and naive that you let people tell you what colors you see and you actually believe them.

I'll bet I could convince you dipshits that this apple is blue and you would actually non-ironically believe it.

>>9506853
that apple looks green to me sir

>>9506827
This butthurt

why the fuck is this stickied?

>>9506143
But I am not colorblind and see it light blue and gold? This normal?

>>9504453
How retarded could one be to say that all those blackness there is for nothing?

I cannot even understand which part of the dress is being seen as "gold" and "white". Black is there, right before your eyes, how the fuck you cannot see that?

And the white, what the actual fuck about that? The picture is of all colours, and you are saying it somehow is white? I mean, fine, the left one has that really pale blue on it, and that's because it is too illuminated that it has lost some saturation, but still, the blue is right there. I could accept a "pale blue", provided that you are some computer-illiterate fuck, but that is no where "white".

Just filter what you see digitally with a mental colour correction you retarded fucks.

>>9507035
filtered

>>9506138
Thanks doc

If you think it's black and blue, but you SEE it as white and gold, you are fucking betraying yourself and you are an idiot.

Your eyes see white and gold but other people tell you that you see a different color and you fucking believe them. You should honestly feel ashamed of yourself.

I can't wait until this whole fucking thing gets blown out of the water and it turns out to be some prankster from Reddit and you guys are a bunch of fags who actually fell for it.

>>9505624

Kek, the original dress is blue and black you fucking scrub

There is no lighting that you could show the black and blue dress in that would make it appear white and gold. The dress in question is white and gold, and it's a different dress entirely.

>>9507096
the exposure's fucked, too. that's the bigger problem.

>>9505134
Took the test, scored perfect, male, what now?

My brain just knows how things can go wrong with digital photography, as well as how cloth is seen in real life. I know how that material can shine under warm light, I know that even black can reflect and shine.

I scored 15 and I see white and gold.

Or rather, I see light blueish and bronze, which I interpret as white and gold and wrong white balance.

This whole situation is retarded. Even if it is the same dress hypothetically, it would be like if I showed you a white coffee cup, but I took a deceptive picture of it to make it look green, and then when people called it "green" I was like "No, it's white!" and I got all offended when people didn't believe me.

If you show me a white and gold dress, I'm gonna fuckin call it white and gold and people just need to get over it.

Only photo I've seen where it looks white and gold

>>9505229
I SEE IT IN THE THUMBNAIL NOW

Underrated post

The dress is actually black/blue

If you see white and gold it basically boils down to lighting and how your eye/brain perceive colors.

That's it.

I've seen both.

>>9505229
Underrated post. Its still black and blue, but i understand the morons who think its white and gold

We can all agree that the cow print dress behind it is black and white, right?

Do people fall this easily for viral marketing now?

>>9507319
>fall this easily for viral marketing
You realize that marketing is only viral if it reaches a lot of people, right? So you need a lot of people to fall for it so it can even be considered viral.

>>9507343

in my bumfuck nowhere eastern european country, everyone I showed it to said "yeah I know what that's about a friend showed me" etc etc

EVERYBODY knows about it

>>9507348
>>9507348
Which means that it went viral. Your statement simply didnt make any sense.

Marketing has to fool many people for it to be considered viral in the first place. So being surprised that many people fall for 'viral marketing' makes the sense because if they hadnt been fooled it wouldnt be viral. You get what I mean?

>>9507317
Yeah, but it has light shining straight onto it.

>>9504453
The dress is confirmed blue and black. If you ever saw this as white and gold, congratulations, you're retarded and possibly color blind.

bumping memedress thread

>>9507140
Funny, now I can see it as black and blue.

What does the colour of the actual dress have to do with the colour of it in this photograph with lighting effect? The picture is what's in question not the actual dress.

I see it as light blue and a dark greyish brown.

>>9506614
Funny, this was the first board I thought it would have a discussion about the dress.

>>9508457
Well, some autist will ignore that completely and tell you are a retard for not guessing the color of an over exposed pic of a shitty dress.

>>9504453
whole thing is dumb, what is the question? the colour of the image or the dress itself? clearly in the image the colour is light blue and brown but with the corrected image it is blue and black, why even ask what the actual colour of the dress is if the image isnt accurate

>>9507267
This. It's all about how your brain perceives the colors. Nothing else.

I originally saw it as white/gold, but sometimes looking at it, it will look blue/black. I asked someone who never saw the original dress, and they said it looked blue/black. So, yeah.

>>9506853
It's mostly purple, if we're being honest with ourselves.

>>9508498
He is though. There's no guessing involved. To see any color except a blue and a black is to ignore the whole fucking rest of the image except those pixels which only make up the dress. You would have to be, and I am not buzzwording because of 4chan, some kind of mental fuckup suffering from a cognitive disorder like developmental retardation or autism in order to ignore all the relevant information to such a degree. The washed out background clues in your brain and it changes its interpretation in order to spit the information up to the conscious mind. That's what a functional human brain does. You'd have to have something wrong with your brain to see white and gold.

My girlfriend sees white and gold. She's also incredibly stressed out and has been functioning on 4 hours or less of sleep for months. Her brain is not functioning correctly. I am on easy street and getting eight to ten hours of sleep a night. I see black and blue without effort. My brain is correctly applying post-processing.

There is no debate here. There are people who are butthurt about being brain damaged, however temporary that might be (gold and white), and the majority that are able to correctly contextualize an image in their subconscious (black and blue.)

>>9505275
By that logic, this dress is gold too.

Or has no one heard of lighting anymore?

>>9506531
I see light blue and gold to royal blue and black

>>9504549
7/10 see white and gold, 1/4 blue and black and a small minority of special snowflakes see blue gold (you)

So, who's going to be the first to spot someone wearing this dress in public?

Or buy it themselves?

Or at least see it in person in a store window?

I can't see it as white at all. Even when I adjust my monitor brightness or stare at the white light for awhile since still don't see pure white. The most is just light blue but maybe that's because I have a normal grasp of how colors reflect light.

Next we're going to say this guy on lefts skin is red just because it looks red

>>9508814
holy fuck you're autistic. his skin looks red in the picture. his skin isn't red, but it appears red in the picture. the dress isn't white, but it appears white in the picture. white things can appear to be lightly blue under shadow, hence the interpretations of the overexposed blue dress as white under shadow. they aren't seeing "pure white" but the light blue appears white as that is the color white objects have under shadow. fuck off with your autistic faggotry.

>>9508828
>it appears white in the picture

it really doesn't

>>9508860
it does for people that have acceptable light intake and white ballance

>>9508868
>is objectively wrong
>talks about "acceptable" vision

Glad my brain can still tell real colours even if there's some light or shadows around.

>>9508814
see >>9507382

of course it's not a pure white color, but that is the how white clothes can look when they are in the shadow, it's not about what color the dress is, it's about what color it looks to be, also your exmaple is fucking retarded, they guy is no red are you going to say he doesn't look red in the picture?

>>9505947
funny

>>9506853
it´s white and gold
now shut the fuck up already

>>9508625
Could you explain why I am retarded for my post I asked the relevance of the actual dresses colour in relation to determining the colour of it in the photo and you are correct to an extent in what your saying depending on how the question is asked "what colour do you see the dress as?" the dress is black and blue or white and gold depending on if your brain veiws it as in an outdoor setting or an indoor setting "what colour is the dress?" The dress if looking at the pixels it is light blue and a greyish dark brown.
