But it goes without saying that any new buyer or seller with any sense is almost
certainly going to go by descriptions before relying on the colour of an image
alone. Once accustomed to how a colour looks on BL they can be more confident
about relying on the look of an image alone to determine colour however that
process will always be much harder if that same shade of colour is rendered differently
for differnt parts? besides its well known in the e-commerce world that the colour
and shading you see on screen may look different in hand especially with people
using different monitor settings and so trying to set the perfect shade for everyone
is somewhat futile concept anyway?
| | Anyone can contribute and fix the remaining problems with this issue. I should
mention that fixing some of the colors like Tan and Dark Tan are a bit more challenging
to get right than others. Most of the bad examples in the OP were actually some
of my early attempts that need to get brought up to randyf's standard.
I will set aside some time today to contribute some better versions.
Take care,
Jen

Firstly I did'nt look to see who the contributor was for the ops examples
so my comments ar'nt targetted at you or any other contributor for that
matter and likewise I don't expect you to fix anything in fact I'd recommend
saving yourself the trouble by just using the official Tan/Dark Tan images I've
posted above as that would be how I have and continue to upload them?
They all look like good enough represntations of Tan and Dark Tan to me in fact
I just looked up some basic 1x1 plates on the lego site to display a vast range
of colours and even though the colour names are not displayed until you click
onto the image I could see exactly which colour was which?
In the end whether we edit the original renders or not people will still get
a few parts mixed up from time to time given they contain light shadowing where
people will see a shade of colour differently but in my view by keeping the renders
consistantly the same you reduce that risk as it gives people the ability to
visually memorize a colour render on the site but if that colour render is always
changing/slightly different it only makes people more reliant on needing to read
the colour description rather than less reliant?
