"Blue" occupies a wide range. Depending on what color wheel you're using, blue's opposite varies. On a Goethe wheel or a RYB wheel, it's orange. On a CMY wheel, it's yellow.Originally posted by: LordMaul

Isn't orange the opposite of blue? And green the opposite of red?
Green IS the opposite of red, but *yellow* is the opposite of blue.

You know how you had everyone wearing pink? Well, now everyone will be wearing green. Apparently it's the next color in fashion. I read it in a magazine.

lol not my eyes
green and red colorblind/color-deficiency FTL
blue's my favorite color choice, and any shade of blue, even teals or other blues with a hint of green... yes i can see some green, but not every shade.. thus some teals look like its just a shade of blue to me... some purples also look like blue to me, so i sometimes confuse blue with purple based on the past knowledge that some blue's i've seen are indeed purple, simply because i lack seeing the red in the purple to distinguish it from normal blue.
i wonder if blue became my favorite color by choice, or because its the color i can see the most of.. meaning blue might surround me more than green or red since i cannot see every green and red... hmmm
i hate color deficiency

On the Visible Light Spectrum.. violet is opposite of red and yellow opposite of blue
Violet is the opposite of red? You obviously don't know what you're talking about. Nice try.Originally posted by: thesurge

The Visible Light Spectrum, which sorts colors by wavelength (white light through triangular prism).
link for visible light spectrum.
although I wouldn't say they qualify as "opposites", really.
