[madviking]

[gay_Aleks]

Looks closer to a really, really whitey blue and yellow.

 

[reddishrecue]

^^Yup.

thirsty thursday as you VA kiddos call it?

When I first saw it I thought it was some clickbait about racism, but then I realized it was even stupider.

I say it's white-gold, by the way.

Also, obligatory TES mention: if there's something white-gold people should be talking about, it should be Tamriel's White-Gold Tower:

MV if you are seeing that as black you need to either adjust your monitor or adjust your eyes. I'm hoping monitor.

White-Gold Shaft of Excellence.

Anyway when I saw it earlier in a smaller size it seemed blue and black. I'm sure it's another riveting tale of our inadequate brains.

Weird. For me, I see this one blue-black. I've seen a close up of the same dress and saw that as white-gold.

Go figure.

Oddly enough, that was my nickname while I was an undergraduate.

You know something's a big deal at UVA when madviking has made a thread about it.

 

[_random_]

I saw it pop up among my Dayton and Memphis friends pretty much simultaneously. Some pretty impressive viral content there.

Also, it's blue and gold.

 

[Timsup2nothin]

Or maybe my monitor.

debatable

 

[Archbob]

If I take a paint brush and paint it red, then it will be red.

 

[Timsup2nothin]

If I put it under even brighter light than that first shot used I could wash out the picture completely.

 

[Goodfella]

I saw this earlier and it looked blue and gold but now it looks blue and black. I have no idea where people are getting white from.

 

[Kozmos]

There you go.
