I don't know about pretty I never liked yellow or red. orange is
the worst color imo, so don't feel too bad
black for the win so you go do it again. Lee I'm starting to think I own
you bug as I see it more often than my own dub.

Hi Lee
What I was getting at was when my connection is slowed (capped when sons exceeds limits) every photo takes time, if the photo is not relevant to the
subject it takes more time for the page to load for no reason.

Hi Steve,
...
I didn't think it was really the size of My pics...
so a thumbnail pic would be better..??
I don't really know what I'm doing when I'm posting pics..
as some are Large size even though the size I send is the same as the smaller one??
and sometimes they turn up as a thumbnail...??
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Vlad,
I really like pink type 3s.. lol
and I'm getting sick of red now... lol
but yellow and orange are good...
then dark green... dark blue... dark Grey...
I don't mind grey undercoat.... lol
cheers
LEE
PS: and thanks for looking.....

dude hate to say it but your probably color blind like 10-20% on
average of guys are and most common is blue deficiency, so yeah purple would look pink or even red.
hmm probably explains why so many guys recon it looks pink and not one chick recon its not even close to pink.
do this test bet you wont get perfect I did.

Hi Vlad
well I get 0 because it was just too hard starting.. lol..
now that is a hard one....
I know telecom/telstra people used to have to do a test of colors as they used multi colored wires on the phone lines..
I find it hard enough to tell dark green and brown wires... lol
cheers
