If you must choose, then out of Yellow, Magenta and Cyan…

  1. Which one looks the most like an in between of two primary1 colors?
  2. Which one looks the least like an in between of two primary1 colors?
  3. Which one looks the most like one of the primary colors?
  4. Which one looks the most white?
  5. Which one looks the most black?

I’m asking, because I want to know if people see colors the same way as I do.
If my “red” is your “green” I expect different answers.

1 Primary colors are Red, Green and Blue.

    I am colorblind, so no.

    Magenta

    Cyan

    Yellow

    Cyan

    Red and blue are tied in this image but in darker shades the answer is always red.

    1, 2, 4, 5: None

    3: Yellow, if by the primaries you refer to Yellow Red Blue.

    Also in your image I don’t see cyan pictured. You have yellow, magenta, and blue. My answers are for true Y, M,C hues.

      I changed the picture because I don’t think my previous one correctly represented the colors.

      The fact that you say cyan was missing and instead you saw blue is I think interesting,
      and wonder if people would agree wit you.

    1. Yellow
    2. Cyan
    3. Cyan
    4. Yellow
    5. Magenta, by a hair over cyan

    In my mind, I’m lumping in cyan as a shade of blue and magenta as a shade between purple and red. Yellow for 4 since I could imagine magenta and cyan text being legible whiteboard marker colors, but not yellow.

    Edit: ran through again on an OLED display after a crappy TN panel on the first run. Same answers but with a larger margin for 5.
