So, you’re not using the camera on your cell phone? You’re actually using a camera camera? Just curious. Because it seems that nowadays, camera cell phones will run circles around some actual cameras, lol I have a Nikon Z9 mirror, less camera, and several lenses that cost as much as a good car, lol But when I take those mirrored images that I post on the board, I don’t even bother reaching for the camera. I just use my iPhone, 🤓 ---

Is it green? No, it is a yellow that is a _bit_ greener but still it is yellow imo. Not yellow like the takeshi strings, yellow like fluorescent yellow, that leans a tiny bit green. I understand your point but color is hella nuanced and there are not real lines between what it or isn’t green. Like if you think it is more green than yellow, thats cool call it green w/e ---

Here’s an easy metric: if it ain’t pretty much the hue of cheddar then it ain’t yellow. I definitely wouldn’t eat cheddar if it was the hue of these supposedly-yellow strings you guys are showing. 🙂 ---

Cheddar is only orange if you add food dye to it. I’m talking about its natural colour. ---

Cheddar is white (cream colored?) without dyes lol ![IMG_8454](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/c/9/4c949673447fa2ea0ed91bfb5cb55dd54481883a.jpeg) Got these on the white printer paper now so adjust to your monitor if you want. Added some more We are talking fluorescent colors also. True fluorescent colors literally absorb UV light and reflect it back in the visible spectrum, which is why they are so bright and kind of their own thing. They almost glow or something. The takeshi v3 at the top is a yellowthat is not fluorescent. ---

I suspect the string identifies as yellow, but that’s not of my concern or for me to judge. ---

This is a great comparison. I’ll just add that the colour will likely also vary depending on the material. This is because the type of dye used to dye polyester is different from nylon. So I imagine it would be pretty hard to colour match exactly across the whole line strings. This is also why you’ll find the texture differs a bit between different colours of a particular string. When dying a fabric, it alters the surface of the material causing a slight change in texture. Various colour dyes alter the material with variance. ---

lol, okay I know this is a joke but I can’t help myself but comment on this. Dogs aren’t actually colourblind, they just see a different part of the spectrum from us. They see less variety of colours but will see more details, particularly in the yellows and blues, than we do. From an evolutionary perspective, this indicates that there would have been an advantage for wolves to have adapted to seeing in this range. It likely also relates to having more sensitive vision in dark environments (living in dens, hunting at night). ![IMG_6563](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/4/c/d4ccc18321505976d0dce1192e25241084938392.png) ---

Comparatively, birds see a wider range of colours than we do. This illustrates a comparison, but honestly we can’t even imagine the range of what they see because it’s not in our comprehension. ![IMG_6564](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/3/1/e31da170f2154d3ddb7449ff466cd7e5b76a893e.webp) Edit: sorry for going off topic. 😬😅 ---
