(...) After staring at this list for a while, I think it will be a sea change to use some of these names. For example: color #25 is called 'Earth Orange'. To my eye, this looks much darker than the color of a Kaadu (which we have called earth (...) (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) The way I see it, we probably will never switch to calling colors by their LEGO names - some, like 'Lig. Yellowich Orange' just don't work for me :) It would be nice to correlate the names we use to the entries in the table. For that matter, (...) (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) With respect to the RGB and the CMYK numbers... I did a bit of quick reading about the two color specification models. If I understood it correctly, RGB is more oriented towards monitor displays, while CMYK (subtractive) is intended to specify (...) (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) That's because the official Earth Orange color _is_ darker than the Kaadu. The Kakama mask and feet used on Huki from the Bionicle line (McD's Matoran/Tohunga set from September 01) are the color officially termed Earth Orange (as was listed (...) (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) It should be, since most modern printers use cyan, magenta, and yellow ink for color printing (I'm guessing "K" is for "blacK"?). In working with light, the primaries are red, blue, and green, and the secondaries are cyan, magenta, and _amber_ (...) (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) What's wrong with it? "Lig." is an abbreviation for "light" (not the one we're used to, but...), "yellowich" is only one letter different from "yellowish"...ah, you must object to their use of the strange foreign word "orange", right? ;P (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) On further comparison, "Lig. Yellowich Orange" is the only color that uses the spelling "yellowich", while every other use is spelled "yellowish". I propose that the C-spelling is a typo and should be corrected. (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) The way to test this is to do the translation between CMYK and RGB. If the numbers in the table convert more or less exactly, then we know it's just a simple translation. If they don't match, then it's likely the CMYK values have been ajusted (...) (21 years ago, 2-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
