Kurt i just don't get it, i opened it in Paint Shop Pro and they are different colours! What am i suppose to be looking at?

Here's an example of excessive copying. It's very lossy somehow. Just not the same :bawling:

Use the eyedropper to check the RGB values of both tiles, A & B - they both are the same shade of gray (107, 107, 107). For even more drama, you can copy the B tile to a layer, then move it up next tile A to compare side-by-side. :dizzy:

Caitlin - ColorZilla sounds very cool. I'll definitely check that out.

Thanks for the tip! :happy:

Unbelievable. But True. I’ve proved it. But still can’t believe it.

Pierre.????? Another confusing picture??? Are you saying that these legs are the same as well.Yes.Very confusing. I blame jpg compression, but others claim one of them is not Jessica Simpson at all!

HAHAHA :lmao: I'm laughing so hard right now.

As for that being the same shade... I don't know why but that bothers me

It's like when you really start thinking about the universe having no end. It's just...

troublesome to me

:dizzy: :dead: :ditsy:

Nice one Pierre.
:lol:
This must be this first picture I’ve seen where it looks better with artefacts.

This is what you call "Simultaneous contrast". The two gray squares look different in brightness and color(this happens with color images as well). Overlapping then, they are identical. Using the eyedroppers they will reveal the same values (L*A*B,RGB and CMYK) dependings on your color settings in P.S.
