#TeamBlueAndBlack

But I can see the gold, a bit. It's more gold than black but I think the assumption is that since the blue is washed out it's a very dark colour being washed out to goldish so my brain goes "it's black".



Tried it w/ all kinds of different settings on two displays. I see the same colours.

Thanks for the data. This is an interesting illusion, though.

Seeing the version with the exposure fixed, I can definitely see how blue and black happens. The original is still white and gold for me, though.


edit: Wait, fuck. Nevermind. Now the original looks blue and black. It used to look white and gold. Now I'm really fucking confused. Are my rods and cones just primed now or something? Shit, man. Well, now that I've seen both sides of the coin, I guess I can't called you black and blue people fucking liars anymore. You...turned me.

 

[sn00zer]

I see black and blue...and its very black and blue....dad saw white and brown...wtf

 

[DiscoJer]

If I strain my eyes long enough its light blue and gold. First glance scrolling on my phone is white and gold but seeing the whole its light blue and gold. How the hell you see blue and black? I'm being mindblown.

I'm the other way. I don't see how people can see it's white and gold. It's clearly blue and black to me.

 

[Ishida]

Here. Fixed the exposure.

Blue-ish white and gold.

 

[squidyj]

If you're getting white and gold try turning up the brightness of your screen, or increasing the back panel output.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

White and gold checking in.

 

[Floridian]

That was the point, maybe? I see black and blue in it now, but the OP is still white and gold.

We're at 5 pages and I still haven't seen a white & gold dress yet.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

It's Red and Orange.

What are you guys talking about?

 

[Izuna]

I see blue and gold. For a second I saw black, but I can't anymore. Are my eyes fucked?

 

[Leynos]

Explanation:

"Your eyes have retinas, the things that let you interpret color. There’s rods, round things, and cones that stick out, which is what gives your eye a textured appearance in the colored part."

Either I'm reading this incorrectly, or the author is very confused about what an iris is/does.

Oh, as for the dress, I see gold, and white with a slight blue tinge.

 

[Poltergust]

Wait, the OP's picture suddenly turned into a pale blue and grey once I saw the fixed-up picture.

WHAT IS GOING ON!?

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Clearly blue and black, even with brightness turned all the way down.

Is everyone else trying to trick me? O_O

Are you blue and black guys trying to trick us?

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I don't understand this dress and it scares me

 

[Diebuster]

Black and blue. I don't even see a darkish gold, it's very clearly black to me.

 

[Hackworth]

blue-grey and kinda brownish from the OP photo. Fixed exposure looks more blue and dark brown

 

[MiszMasz]

Couldn't she have just taken a better picture? Fuckin 2MP and backlit bullshit.

Spoiler

Black and blue.

 

[Ishida]

Clearly blue and black, even with brightness turned all the way down.

Is everyone else trying to trick me? O_O

I turned my screen's brightness almost all the way down, and I still see white/gray and gold.

 

[Iph]

If accurate, I have better eyesight. Tones more brownish (with slight gold tinge at very top), then gradiates down to black rather quickly. The dress's base color is blue. I'm referring to the color of the dark trim changing as you look down the dress.

 

[NobleGundam]

Am I the only one who sees blue and gold?

 

[Slygmous]

Did OP just change the picture?

I saw white and gold, read to the end of the thread and saw the "exposure corrected" version, went back to the first page and can see blue and black only now

 

[Blizzard]

the two colors, from photoshop. dunno how you can say that's not gold

I checked the RGB values as well and see the same thing. What I REALLY want to know is, for anyone looking at corn_fest's picture, do you also see black and blue there?

 

[Namikaze1]

Wtf! The first time I entered the thread, I saw white and gold. Now I'm seeing it in blue and black. Guess I'm average.

 

[BrokenIcarus]

Holy shit what the fuck, I have no clue how you can see white and gold Oo

 

[Tom Penny]

That's pretty trippy. I see white and gold and my brother sees blue and black.

 

[ExplodingKetchup]

I've looked at this dress like 7 different times and it's always white and gold.

 

[Horse Detective]

THE COLORS ARE CHANGING FOR ME TOO I DON'T UNDERSTAND

 

[Bjomesphat]

the two colors, from photoshop. dunno how you can say that's not gold

This is the only objective answer in this thread. And that's exactly what I see.

 

[corn_fest]

Just turned off the lights in my room and now it totally looks blue and black, especially in the fixed-exposure picture, and nothing like the colors I pulled out in Photoshop (^) earlier.

Crazy shit.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I see the blue and black now. The heck?

Did OP just change the picture?

I saw white and gold, read to the end of the thread and saw the "exposure corrected" version, went back to the first page and can see blue and black only now

Same here!

 

[Izuna]

Am I the only one who sees blue and gold?

I see it too. No way it is white. No way it is black.

 

[Chezzymann]

White and gold. Where are people seeing black? I have no idea. I can understand interpreting the white shirt as blue due to the tint though.

 

[Red Comet]

I instantly saw blue and gold.

Am I special?

 

[SugarDave]

Blue and Brown. It doesn't even look close to black to me.

 

[Marty Chinn]

I see blue and gold; what does that mean?

 

[Sölf]

I checked the RGB values as well and see the same thing. What I REALLY want to know is, for anyone looking at corn_fest's picture, do you also see black and blue there?

I only see black and blue in all of the dress pictures. Stop telling me you see something different! D:

 

[Ryaaan14]

These are the primary colors I see in the photo.

verified by software

EDIT: GODAMMIT alr1ght

I see these colors.

Not these.

 

[Count Dookkake]

The Emperor's New Colors

 

[NobleGundam]

I see it too. No way it is white. No way it is black.

Exactly
Saw black sort of in the beginning but the more you focus it's actually gold.

 

[Iph]

We've been had?

 

[remz]

This is fucked up. I looked at it again and it changed to black and blue

 

[RCSI]

Weird.

I saw White and Gold, scrolled down to read the rest of the page, after seeing the other photo of it in Blue and Black I scrolled back up and the original image then had a Blue and Black dress.

My brain can't take this sorcery!

Exact same thing happened to me. The dress quickly shifted from blue and black to white and gold...before my eyes. I do not trust my eyes anymore!

Spoiler

As far as colors go, which I knew before hand

 

[The_Reckoning]

Who is the most amount of high? The color is the opposite of that.... or is it the other way around?

 

[Floridian]

For the "white & gold" crew, is this something similar to what you're seeing? That's white & gold to me.

 

[Annubis]

Clearly blue and black, even with brightness turned all the way down.

Is everyone else trying to trick me? O_O

Are you blue and black guys trying to trick us?

And then the few survivors left will think back on how inane the reason for World War III was...

 

[JaseMath]

The blue/black folks are trolling everyone. That dress is white and gold yo

 

[Tripolygon]

Black and Blue

 

[aly]

That is clearly black and blue. Maybe you could argue the top part is goldish though.

 

[Toxi]

I see white and gold. I showed it to a friend and she saw blue and black.

This is fucking weird.

 

[Baroquemantic]

I'm seeing a blueish, grayish white and gold.

 

[Can Crusher]

People seeing white and gold are straight up tripping.
