Not sure if srs or just newfag...

I guess that its possible, but not likely since our genetic codes for the rods and cones in our eyes are all probably similar. As for the circles with bubbles, sadly, I am color deficient (color blind, whatever the fuck you want to call it). I could never see the numbers :(

i heard somewere that the colour is determined by which colours pass through and which refraft from the object..
 
This doesnt make sense.(Or at least im interpurtting it wrong if i am tell me) IF i was to look at an apple and say this is red( or at least the color i think is red) and someone could agree. If they were looking at and it was purple they would disagree.... I will be making a neww thread on a better mind blowing color thing though
 
You are indeed interpreting it incorrectly and although I could explain it, I am feeling terribly lazy. I think I'll just let some one else do it. Shameful, I know.

I just wanted to add my two cents.
I used to think about this, when I was much younger I had a long think about this, but I stopped thinking about it so I didn't reach a conclusion.

But looking back, I've found that I'm thinking three things.
1 - It's possible to some extent. If you replace the colour green with blue, blue with red, and red with green, and let all the other colours change respectively, there would be no way of telling, as long as the tint, saturation etc are all the same. The difference between this and colour blindness is that with colour blindless there is evidence because it makes a difference. This wouldn't make any difference that would be visible to anyone else, so there's a distinct division between the two.
2 - It doesn't really matter. Because if this does indeed happen, it doesn't really affect anything. (Still, interesting to think about)
3 - While I find it entirely plausible (at least when not thinking about it biologically), I don't believe it actually happens, for the reason that there is no reason for it to happen. (As far as we know)
That's kind of like the giant spaghetti monster argument, in a way. But with a different purpose, of course. ;)
 
Its perfectly possible but also meaningless.

If I see red in my eye as colour X and you see red in your eye as colour Y and we both call it 'red' then I understand what you mean and you understand what I mean. So who really cares, beyond minor 'ooh, right' interest, that whilst our personal observations of reality are different our consensus experiences of reality are the same?
 
color is seen different, by ppl that are color blind, all color is, is reflected light which an object doesnt absorb..
 
You do have a good point I really dont know what to think but this is the way I am thinking.

Lets assume we all see a diffrent color. So like the color may be completely diffrent but maybe in the same amount of change. Like lets say you see all the colors but on a much brighter or darker scale or something in that way. You are used to seeing blue like in a very bright way compared to someone else but you see yellow even brighter then you see blue. So you consider blue as a darker color and you can say that blue is darker then yellow and can tell the diffrence between all the colors even though you dont see the color the same .

I'm not sure if that makes any sense but to me it seems possible but unlikely
 
Actually, we can take pictures and analyse the RGB content with a computer to define what colour is what, although no-one will see it exactly the same. I have TINY SHRIMP EYES so everything is darker for me, because I take in less light, for example.
 
I just had a thought, Red is generally seen as agressive and evil, it wouldn't be aggresive if someone percieved it as green would it?
 
I've also wondered if there is other colors that we jsut don't know about
 
ive actually been thinking about this. what about color deficient people? they see some colors differently. so why cant the rest of the population?
 
People with normal color vision seem to see the same colors. But how intense a certain color appears, or how subtle the difference between two shades of one color may be, probably varies from individual to individual. However, unless science devises a way for us to see through the eyes of another-a possibility
that is now very much in the realm of science fiction-we will never know for sure.

EDIT:

Some of you might find this interesting, Did you know your eyes may betray feelings you would rather hide. The way our pupils open or close can give away our thoughts and emotions, in that the degree of pupil dilation can indicate the degree of interest in the person or thing being seen. For centuries, merchants trying to judge how high a price we'll pay, magicians guessing the card we've picked, and con men wanting to know if we've been duped have looked into our eyes for the answer.

There is one reason why this is wrong, which i don't think anyone has thought of yet. The colour wheel. All the colours blend into one another. If a child was to see the colours differently then they would not blend into eachother, which means this senario would be known of if it existed.

Actually our pupils dilate according to how much light is hitting it. Lots of light means small pupils, little light means big pupils. Not how you explained it.

Hold a box of crayns/markers/colored pencils whatever in front of 100 different kids, tell them to pick out the red one.

Proved.

Not proved. What one would call red, would be blue to another in their head but they would see call it red because that is what they have been told their whole life, so that it what the associate it with.

I have also thought of this, I actually posted a thread a while ago about this.

Although possible, it doesn't make sense in a world where everybody was and is created equal.

Actually, you're both right. It's a physical response to an attractive sight to have your pupils dilate to receive the maximum amount of light, and thus, the best vision.
