    All it's missing is Bill Clinton and a cigar.

    **** messes with your brain. My girlfriend sees black and blue, I see white and gold.

    Apparently it means my eyes don't adjust to low light as well as hers... Yet even when I crank up brightness... It's still gold and white.

    Supposedly has to do with the brightness of your display.

    Crappy optics + poor lighting = washed out colors.

    It's black and blue.

    The mystery remains. I cannot see the black and blue but I've tried this on multiple people who do see it. It's clearly white and gold. I think the black and blue people process visual information better (the terrible flash, etc).

    Just realized CCorn is with me in this. Stay strong bro.

    I honestly thought about choosing white/gold just mess with the OP because it didn't seem like a legit question but I guess it is. Still not sure how some see white/gold though. I've been staring at the thing for 10 minutes as if it were one of those optical illusions where you can trick your brain to see it multiple ways. But I still can't see the god damned sailboat.

    The very first time I looked at it, it was obviously white and gold to me. I had no idea how anyone could see it as blue.

    After about 30 minutes, I looked at it again and it was blue and brownish.

    It's been that way ever since to me.

    I saw black and blue, but saw white and gold at a different time. It goes back and forth....
