Winners: Color Schemer Studio



We’ve drawn the two winners of the Color Schemer Studio contest. Drumroll please…

The winner of the best answer to the question “What’s your favourite colour and why” is Andy Martin with:

My favorite color is vermilion because it sounds like a small creature and something irresistibly delicious at the same time.

The winner of our random draw is Rhys with:

My favorite colour is R:246 G:242 B:235 because it’s the colour of my wife’s face when the sun is rising on a early Sunday morning, when we camp outside around the camp fire, about an hour NW from Captains Flat in NSW.

Yay for (Aussie!) Rhys and his wife’s face :D

Thank you to everyone who entered, and to Color Schemer Studio for the great prizes!

    OMG Rhys you are The Man!

    Being able to pass off a hex color code as a compliment to your wife is astounding. If you can tie that in with a CSS style you’ve got a brilliant future ahead of you w/ Hallmark Greeting Cards

    R:246 G:242 B:235 – I assumed that was going to be a beautiful shade of scarlet, Scarlett?, or maybe vermilion. But, it’s just a very pale orange, isn’t it?

    Maybe I need to check my monitor gamma

    Hehe thanks guys. I’m going to try something out with that RGB value now. I showed my wife my response last night and she was blushing :)

    Thanks again to FreelanceSwtich and Color Schemer Studio, you guys rock!

    Hope Rhys and his wife don’t mind but I’ve written a short post on http://www.sciencetext.com/compliment-your-partner-with-hex-code.html and discussed the issue of monitor gamma in getting your partner’s skin tone just right. R:247 G:197 B:181 as opposed to R:0G:255B:0, for instance…
