I counted 38 and yes, the color yellow annoys me.

I count 41 but have always had a keen eye for colour.

This seems unlikely because our monitors can only reproduce trichromatic colours. It's more likely you're distinguishing based on contrast, which is exactly the point of changing gamma settings when playing games.

I was at 36, but screens always make me suspicious of colour perception tests.

Yeah I counted 35 one time and 38 or something the other. I don't like yellow but it doesn't annoy me. And I saw the dress as white and gold. And you know what... I am suspicious of this test because it claims only 25% people will have that "fourth cone" yet everyone I've seen who responded to it saw more than 32 colors. Funny how only 25% are supposed to be able to see more and yet so far everyone I've seen who has seen this article manages to have a fourth cone.

Alastair McGowan-Douglas Huh.. that might explain why everyone is able to see all the colors. I just thought the whole thing was a bunch of hogwash honestly.

I can see three pairs of colours I can't distinguish but a) I'm colour blind and b) this monitor probably sucks.

I totally agree, Alastair McGowan-Douglas. This isn't a real eye test. ;)

Like Lise Bjerregaard Nielsen​ said I don't trust the reproduction on the screen, but I see hundreds of variations of tones!

In each band I can see even more graduation in color. Similar to a pantone chart. Just in the purple to pink I counted eighteen distinct color shifts. If I zoom in to each tone I can see even more distinct bands of color.

I don't think I can! Color picker can do millions. Supposedly the human eye can detect millions of color variations. I can see a lot, but I don't think I can see millions. My friend CJ might, he is an artist.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
