Did anyone notice?

Depending on your color space, black can be the absence of all color (R=G=B=0) or the presence of all colors (C=M=Y=100).

So perhaps the question also depends on the medium. In our case, viewing forum pages on the web in RGB color, black would technically be the absence of all colors.

This is complicated somewhat by the fact that it is unlikely that even R=G=B=0 will provide a "true" black that contains no other color contamination, primarily because of the imperfect ability of a CRT or LCD to produce a true absence of color.

Therefore, I'd maintain that in the context of this forum, black would indeed be a color.

Wow I didn't think anyone would get that. But yes, you are right.

It's fatandlazy11 the king of annoyance, as he likes to be called. (He insists I add the "King" part to it)

As a young teenager not understanding much, I say black and white are colors.

Actually, C+Y+M=K :p
 
Remember to fill your plate with many colors, and in my book, that means whatever you can get your hands on.

And yes, that took me about 15 minutes to get it all right. But I love color!
 
You could have just used a tool like this

I keep expecting to see a post by vniow, but it's someone else. Very confusing. Not that she owns the theme, but she and some of the other ladies seemed to make it their own.
