- Thread-topic: just testing, this list seems deceased?
Hello to all remaining ColorSyncers!
Having been an avid fan of the often passionate and flaming debates that this
list brings, I thought I’d say hi and goodbye before it’s demise.
I’ve never had the need to post a comment before, as most topics have been
above my pay grade, however, I have enjoyed the wealth of advice and
experiences that the many and varied users have taken the time to share and
debate. Thank you all for your dedication and passion.
It would be a great shame for this professional forum to concede defeat and
succumb to the belief that just because the majority of end users do not care
about nuanced (living) colour, in their fast paced click, swipe, click
“maconsumerist” lives, that the minority need not still strive for visual
technical brilliance.
Perhaps the users of this list are having a longer lockdown break, to reassess
real world colour management needs, in a post covid / pre artificial
intelligence world, where devices pre-empt the needs of the end user, as
silicon and software become increasingly speedier and more sophisticated.
The esoteric knowledge of ColorSyncers, has by it’s nature been an irrelevance
for the majority of end users, it would be a shame for this list to become an
irrelevance to it’s target audience due to the belief that their combined
expertise is no longer required... perhaps the demise of this list reflects the
demise for legacy 20th century colour management technologies in the 21st
century?
In light of the popularity of screen based media content and it’s nanosecond
shelf life, it appears that the overall visual effect rather than colour
accuracy, is the order of the day... except for those with a more discerning
eye or the luxury of time for some professional navel gazing.
For those that are still thinking in colour, this message is supposedly typed
in black ink on a white background, which is quite possibly neither absolutely
black or white, but perhaps a duotone of light and dark grey (gray), either
way, it will still convey some from of meaning to someone(?!).
For those of you familiar with Monty Python...

A customer enters a pet shop.
Customer (Cleese): 'Ello, I wish to register a complaint.
(The owner does not respond.)
C: 'Ello, Miss?
Owner (Palin): What do you mean "miss"?
C: I'm sorry, I have a cold. I wish to make a complaint!
O: We're closin' for lunch.
C: Never mind that, my lad. I wish to complain about this parrot what I
purchased not half an hour ago from this very boutique.
O: Oh yes, the, uh, the Norwegian Blue...What's,uh...What's wrong with it?
C: I'll tell you what's wrong with it, my lad. 'E's dead, that's what's wrong
with it!
O: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting.
C: Look, my lad, I know a dead parrot when I see one, and I'm looking at one
right now.
O: No no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'! Remarkable bird, the Norwegian
Blue, idn'it, ay? Beautiful plumage!
C: The plumage don't enter into it. It's stone dead.
O: Nononono, no, no! 'E's resting!
C: All right then, if he's restin', I'll wake him up!
Hopefully this list will be more Flaming Phoenix than Norwegian Blue!
Take care all... like I said at the start... hi & goodbye!
Thanks
