   A great idea!

   To me, it seems that colornames.org is the equivalent of wikipedia.org but for colors.

• My attempt of Valve timeline

  I did a little research and then according Mitchell Brown on quora.com, it's stated that the intro of Portal 2 suggests that it takes place far in the future, but many have speculated it takes place around the time of Half Life 2.

• School blocks Nordvpn

  My school gives me a laptop that is very restricted, most settings cannot be changed without admin, everything is logged, cmd blocked, websites blocked, etc. My laptop with Zorin OS (linux) does not have that issue so I always keep it in my bag. I would like to connect to the school wifi, however they still block certain web requests like quora.com, and nordvpn.com to name a few. For some reason my phone has no... Source: about 1 year ago

• Grayfruit Official Colors Update

  For those who haven't seen the original post, TL;DR colornames.org allows you to name all the colors of the RGB 255 spectrum. We worked to get the names of the colors that make up the grayfruit logo to be the top names for those colors. I have two updates on the situation. Source: about 1 year ago

  How about imagining new words/names for colors? Check out this Naming Colors website. It can be fun & eye opening in terms of how different people see the same color. Source: about 1 year ago

• How does color get its name?

  There are some standard names for some hex codes which you can see a list of here. I would recommend against using any of the more distinctive colour names (e.g. Alice Blue) on this list unless refering to these exact hex codes. Otherwise call it whatever you want to within reason. There are plenty of colour lists around which you can use as inspiration. When creating a palette for a company it's very common to... Source: over 1 year ago
