cut a hole in a piece of paper just enough to see one square, then compare it to the other. Don't look at the surrounding squares.

The cool thing about this is you can create your own movies by moving around images of a still helicopter, then just claim that your camera was synced :D |

eta the letter not the square It's really simple. If you have a medium gray, and surround it with dark gray, it looks lighter than it is. Same with vice versa. So when you do both, you get a compounded effect. |

Foolproof way to know if A and B are the same shade without relying on something that is easily tricked by a few shades.
1)Right-click on Jaxson's first image. 2)Click copy image 3)Open MSPaint 4)Paste the image into Paint 5)Use the dropper tool to get the color of square A 6)Figure out the RGB value 7)Repeat 5&6 for square B Hint: They're both 120-120-120 with 160 Hue, 0 Sat and 113 Lum. |

not convinced. You mean from the area not being illuminated by the lamp into an area that is?
In other news, when you turn the lights off in a room without windows everything changes colors to black. ETA - Her hand even changes shades too! lol! |
