I think the only standardized colors Ive seen are Panatone. And HTML sometimes...

Pantone*. And even that differs based on the paper etc used. But there are other/similar systems like RAL for paints/lacquers.
Alivi
Sorry for the spelling XD whoops. And true.

Try doing a search for "Slate Grey". Light grays, near-blacks, pastel reds, blues, greens, browns. About a quarter of the damn spectrum...

Also the pistachio looks a bit too gray for me. I think of pistachio a bit closer to sea foam. But that's me being picky I guess

Might be because I have a fourth cone, but I can see the difference in almost all of them. Jade & jet black are the toughest to distinguish.
lyingsmile15
I don't know if I have an extra cone, but I can see the differences in most of them if I look for more than a couple seconds.
TheLadyNym
If you find very subtle gradients easy to distinguish, you very well might. I should also note on mobile, the black segment is all the same.
lyingsmile15
I had to look for a bit and focus more on individual ones than all of them at once and could see the subtle differences in tone.
peridotstar
Isn't that something? The difference in these is referred to as color "Temperature'. More yellow is 'warmer' and blue is 'cooler."
peridotstar
2) in painting pictures or in larger swatches, the differences in those can be noticable cuz the eye will focus on what doesn't 'belong'.
peridotstar
3) Its hard to reach, but there's even a point where you can get a 'cool' yellow before it becomes green. It's almost witchcraft.
