Week 6 Hexadecimal Color

I can't think of anything more relevant to my fashion blog than colors. Fashion is nothing without visual aid. This weeks lecture began on the difference from RGB colors and CMYK colors. This had been a huge problem of fashion bloggers. Fashion until the birth of the internet was all CMYK because picture were printed in on physical paper, in magazines and newspapers. With the birth of online fashion blogs RGB color is becoming more and more prevalent in making people's viewing experience the best it can be.
As a fashion blogger, the Hue, Saturation and Brightness of my pictures will be the first thing people notice on my blog. Understanding the code and actual letters and number of the colors that make up my background will help be diver the best possible product to my viewers. Also, I think it's important to understand how to change the look of pictures to make everything look as great as possible.As I learned in the photoshop lab last week, the slightest changes to a picture can have a great affect on how they are viewed my the public.
In conclusion, the more I can understand how colors in the digital world work, the better my website can be. Also, in my blog I'd like learn even more about how colors work. I want push the current boundaries of color on a website to show people a picture they're never seen before. This will give my blog a creative edge against the competition.

  1. You bring up an interesting concept about fashion being CMYK and people viewing it in RGB. It would be really great to bring the way an article of clothing actually looks closer to the way it is displayed online.
