For example, pure red would always be <

As the other plus is it's much better fit's artist mind that white is 1.0 and grey is 0.5 then some magic numbers like 255 or 65535.<br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
