Examine this image.

Each rank is supposed to be the same hue. But look at the yellow rank - red is top, so move three ranks over from there. Now look at the darker versions (outer pawns). They look olive to me - not at all yellow.

The rank just to the right of red is clearly orange, IMO. What is the name just to the left?!? Raspberry?

How about between orange and yellow. It's very distinctive - shouldn't that have a name? Mustard?

Why do I resort to foods when I don't know a color's name?

Do you think that within each rank, the change in brightness is perceptually equal?

How about in the achromatic (gray scale) row at the bottom?

I will reveal the brightness scale I used to create the values within a rank later.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
