You seem to be the person responsible for the current appearance of the four colors C, M, Y and K in this article. I really don't think the blue in this illustration looks green enough to be cyan.

On the HSL_and_HSV page you have extracted various lightness components for the Fire-breather image. It appears to me that the image you have shown for CIELAB L* is incorrect. After some investigation I think that the image was computed by using Rec. 708 equation 0.2126*R + 0.7152*G + 0.0722*B, except that it was used with the gamma-compressed (R'G'B') components instead of the linear RGB components. The actual image should be much darker and look significantly different from the Luma version. Yahastu ( talk) 03:52, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 11:30, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
I noticed that you reverted my image on the Gamma correction page. Your comment, "the new image is much uglier, and renders poorly" is not exactly forthcoming as to the problem with the image. I spent considerable time and effort ensuring that the new image would match the old one very closely. With the exception of the choice of font (which is beyond my control, as it is an SVG image), I'm interested to know what in particular is "much uglier" and "renders poorly" about it?

I'm sorry but my image illustrating CMYK is undeniably better. Care to explain why you removed it? -- Capsoul ( talk) 21:00, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi, you seem to be one of the color experts around here. BTW, I read the entire exchange at the Flag talk page which may or may not have been spurred by a question I asked here, but I did not read the exchange until just now.
One of my interests is sports teams, and I thought it would be useful to have a page with the official colors of sports teams. My interest is primarily college, but if anything came of this, there are obvious extensions to pro teams, both in the US and worldwide.
Frankly, I expected to find one, and I was surprised not to find one.
Then I assumed that I would find one on the internet is not at Wikipedia. Again, color me surprised that I couldn't find one easily. (I did find this but it fails on two important counts)
I'm writing to you for a few reasons:
My intention was to have an article (or multiple) about pro teams, and a separate one about college teams.
Within each article, I intended to provide a table showing the name of the school, the colors in familiar terms (e.g. red and white), then RGB values, CMYK values, Hex values, Pantone (possibly) and possibly HSL and/or HSV values. Finally, I want sources for each.
Here's where Colorwerx fails doubly. It is very comprehensive in terms of ordinary names for colors, but it has no conversion to any of the color spaces, and it has no sources. It may or may not qualify as a reliable Source, but I'd prefer to simply use it as a check.
(I'll omit, for the present, an additional dimension—time. One ought to specify a time range for each color, so that the list could be queried for any point in time to determine the colors at that time.)
I'd like, if possible to avoid the issues with s RGB, which I don't totally follow, so this may convince you I'm not entirely serious about this, but my hope is that one can specify the colors as mention above without delving into that issue.
Any feedback would be appreciated.-- SPhilbrick T 00:21, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
