Making colors safe for Windows and Mac
Making colors safe for Windows and Mac
08/28/2004 11:08 AMIn a curious filing dated Aug. 26, Apple has applied for a patent
detailing a "Color palette providing cross-platform
consistency." According to the patent’s abstract, the palette
looks to work in conjunction with an existing application to
"facilitate user selection of web-safe colors."
The images attached to the filing show an OS-9 interface with what
looks to be a Photoshop 5-type color window. Colors are eventually
arranged into groups of "Non web-safe" and
"Web-safe" colors for Windows and Macintosh:
"In laying out the color palette, the extent of achromatic
colors located within the color palette is determined. The achromatic
colors are then arranged in one group on the palette, for instance in
order of lightest to darkest. The non web-safe chromatic colors are
then grouped together. From this grouping blends of the colors are
created. Finally, the web-safe chromatic colors are grouped together.
Blends with respect to the web-safe chromatic colors are created and
then grouped on the color palette.”
While it seems to be a relatively outdated concept (with outdated
diagrams), Apple has yet to incorporate this specific technology in
one of its applications.

Marc's post
about Behr
Paint's wonderful Lazlo-based color picker
application reminded me that I needed a color picker myself so I
went shopping for
one this afternoon.
I have a healthy respect for the power
of colors but my color-sense is one-directional: I can go from
colors to judgement
but not the other way. That is, I can't say “I want
some nice professional
set of colors for these set of web pages” and then come up
with one. Thankfully,
there are programs to help me. Most of them are
appropriately priced pathetic
sharewares, but I found a couple that looked good: ColorImpact
2 and Color Wheel Pro
2.
After trying both, I found Color Wheel Pro 2 to be the better of
the two. Lucky
for me, it even costs less than the other one. Nice.
Update:
Found another nice website that explains colors in a pleasant way:
handprint.

Olympus m:robe 100 in Two New Colors
04/14/2005 10:03 AM
Olympus
is offering two new colors of their m:robe MR-100 MP3
player—sort of. The front of the device is still the
Knight-Rider-like red-on-black (of which, I must say, I am a
fan). The back of the current models is white, but the new models will
be available with backs in light pink and light blue. It's like those
videos I used to stare at when I was a kid, where the cover girl was a
studious bookworm by day but a crime-fighting whore at night. I may be
getting some of the plot-points confused.
No idea if we'll get these models in America. I guess it depends on
how well the MR-100 is selling, which is hard to augur considering
Olympus misguidedly put all their marketting muscle into the
MR-500.

Apple Shows Some Mean Colors
Apple Shows Some Mean Colors
07/29/2004 11:26 AMCNN: Apple:
RealNetworks hacked iPod. Apple Computer accused RealNetworks
Thursday of adopting the tactics of a hacker and breaking into the
technology behind its popular music player iPod device.
So Apple is happy to let you play your music only in the
way it permits, if you're going to use its devices. The company says
it'll rewrite its software to thwart Real's customer-friendly hack --
and I use that word in the benevolent sense -- that lets people use
what they've bought with just a bit more freedom than Apple wishes to
grant.
Threats to use copyright law against Real are exactly what you'd
expect, unfortunately. Apple wants control over online music, and this
is just part of the game.
What we customers want is cross-platform compatibility: standards.
What the companies want is lock-in. They may win, but they're only
locking me out -- because I won't play by those rules. Which means
I've bought my last iTunes Music Store song until Apple starts paying
more attention to what its customers want.

Alien Planets Tell Tales With Colors
Alien Planets Tell Tales With Colors
03/23/2005 07:57 PMTwo teams of Astronomers this week discovered the color of two
planets by using infrared radiation. This break-through will allow
experts to discover what the planet’s surface or
atmosphere are made of. This is a major finding. According to Astronomy Magazine,

Charbonneau's group used the Spitzer Space
Telescope's Infrared Array Camera to home in on the light from TrES-1,
a "hot Jupiter" zipping around a Sun-like star about 500 light-years
from Earth in the constellation Lyra. The astronomers tracked the
intensity of two infrared "colors" as the planet passed behind its
star, an event called secondary eclipse. The team subtracted the
star's radiation from the total seen when the planet was not eclipsed
by the star. Measuring the gas giant's infrared radiation allowed the
team to calculate its temperature — a sizzling 1,450° F
(1,060 kelvins). Charbonneau suspects his group has also found the
spectral fingerprint of carbon monoxide in the planet's atmosphere,
but, he says, "We're going to go back and get more data."
