(...) David, are you seriously going to tell me that what I like in colors isn't correct? If so, you've got bigger issues than the color change. I used Tan with new greys in (URL) building>, for example. It's one thing for you to tell me you don't (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) Nope, it's warm. (...) Sand-blue and dark-blue, yes. Regular blue is warm. I haven't really checked any of the lesser shades of blue, but I doubt it would look good with Maersk-blue, and dark-bley does ugly things to medium-blue (for some odd (...)

(...) Well, when I was doing theatre lighting work, I was one of the few people who could color-match Rosco gels by eye. Maybe I just have an unusually well-developed eye for colors. Regardless, take a blue brick to an art store and compare it to (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) For me, either fluorescent light or bright sunlight work well. But just keeping the parts separate like Tim said would be a lot faster. (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) I too suffer colour blindness so I have to keep them separate. This also makes it much easier when I want to build exclusively in one colour since it's already separated out. I agree it can be a pain though and I have been caught out before (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

All this color talk has me finally posting something I have been thinking for awhile: My biggest problem with the greys and bleys is that it is hard for me to be consistent when I want to be consistent. If I need, say, eight 1x2 plates in grey or in (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) Yeah, that's what I got- 'warm white'. They aren't the same color as warm-white incandescents by any means. Those are yellowy, the CF's aren't as yellow. I haven't switched entirely- I bought a pack of them, and I'm replacing bulbs as my (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)

(...) They're talking about making incandescents illegal here in Aus (or possibly just in QLD) fairly soon, with subsidies for switching to compact flourescents. Gladly they come in a range of colour temperatures these days, so you're not limited to (...) (17 years ago, 9-May-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
