    https://imagecolorpicker.com/en for those seeing white and gold. Also the screen you’re looking at it on matters so much.

    Edit: I did find a neat bug with DarkReader on though. It reads the white pixels as black with the magnifier on the right. Even turning off it’s still pretty blue and white… Apparently it actually pulls the color judging by what your screen shows though… which is pretty neat all considering. The crosshair is on the large white empty space to the right of the large black stripe in the middle.

        See I get nothing but blue and gold… Which is the entire crux of the illusion lol. Your brain just makes up for the color shift due to previous images it’s seen with washed out saturation due to ISO / artificial light boost.

      Seems to me a color picker confirms white and gold. Although the white has a bluish tint, some areas don’t even have that, and are light grey. There is no doubt the gold (black) is different tones between brown and yellow, which is the RGB you’d expect for a gold color.

          I just saved your image and loaded it into GIMP, and the correct value for the brownish color shown as selected is RGB(256): 78,66,39. (decimal) The same value for both the selection in the read square, and the one left of the RGBA value that is wrong. Brown and yellow colors are dominated by red and green, the RGB value shown in your picture can’t possibly match the color shown as the selected color.

          The value shown in your software is wrong.
