I'd like to chime in on two things here...

1. Ed came in to ask his friends a question that's off topic, even labeled the thread "off subject" which should lead you "fishing talk only guys" away from even clicking on it... No big deal to me, I think it's a funny post, also interesting that we're seeing different colors... Some people here get upset when there's a post like this, yes it's a fishing forum, but we make friends here... This is a place to go fishing with our friends when we can't go fishing with our friends (that's how I see it anyway)... That being said (and if you disagree that's A-OK with me) but when I'm on the water I talk about everything... If I say, "My wife got mad at me the other day, bla bla etc....", My friend doesn't slap me in the eye and say, "Only talk about fishing!"... We hang out and shoot the ish about life and fishing and whatnot... I see this place as hanging out on the ice with my buddies, although if you don't want to talk about a subject that gets brought up here, you can politely hit the back button and sneak out of the conversation without saying a word, unlike in person where you'd feel obligated and get sucked in... I wouldn't let an off-topic post ruin your day, it's all in the name of fun... If you don't like the post there's really no need to let it bother you to the point of putting a fellow member down over it, it's not like it's going to get stickied to the top, it'll eventually drop into the depths where it won't bother you anymore...

2. That dress is white and gold, if you say otherwise then I retract statement #1 and say, damn you Ed get this crap off the forum  ;D

Thanks for noticing that it did say "off subject" in the title.  You are right also when you say we talk about everything on the ice not just fishing.  Wish that I could have found a lure picture that did the same thing because everyone would have thought different about it.

I found it kinda interesting that so many people can see the same photo so many different ways.    Now get ready to retract statement #1 cause it it definitely a black and blue dress.

well, don't wanna tick anybody off, my post was purely in jest.

but, the lure looks blue and black to me in both pictures... unless the Mrs says it is white and gold, then that is what I'm going with ;D

Only thing that changes the color to blue and black for me is actually HEAVILY darkening the whole picture...

No matter what color background I put the original colors on (dark or light) it looks white and gold... ??? Weird, we should print it on a spoon and see what the fish think  :P

LOL. The Today Show had a segment on this this morning. The dress is Royal Blue and Black. Depending on the light it looks light blue and bronzish to white and gold. It's how the light hits it.

I could understand the way the light hitting it could change the color if we were seeing it in real life but you can't change the way light is hitting it in a picture.  I have seen cars that have different colors depending on light or the angle you are viewing it at before so I get your thinking.

It's worse than that.....

Can I generate traffic on the Internet with this stupidity? I am an Idioit....

Apparently so,

Sigh. And I bit on this. Shame on me......

I thought everyone was being ridiculous earlier saying it was black and blue... As it was obvious it was white and gold haha

Looking at it with my girl earlier agreeing it was white and gold, something popped, all of the sudden I could only see it as black and blue... Took me a minute to figure out what happened, kind've freaked me out honestly...

Didn't realize it's actually just terrible, TERRIBLE yellow lighting and an awfully crappy photograph... There's two ways to decipher the photo, one is very bright lighting behind the dress and absolutely no foreground lighting shining on it (dress is in the dark) making it appear that shadowed color of white and making it look like a darn good clear photo... Photos of something with no light on it that clear would be quite a feat...

While in actuality, there's a terrible yellow light shining heavily on the blue dress washing over it, yellow light is reflecting off the black making it look yellowish gold and the photo is actually quite grainy and not focused sharply...

I wish everyone could see it both ways, then there would be nothing to it... I can trick myself to see it either way, kind've cool I guess
