and absorb how many colors we can see (16.7 million!). How many different shades of blue, red, green? Just slowly scroll this page: http://wallbase.cc/search (great wallpapers there, you can even search by color).

This is a great window to have up in another tab just in case someone is walking behind you, and you're all like 'bitch! don't look at my facebook! come on! I don't want you to see that I'm on highdeas!' (that just leads to awkward questions) OR if you'd like to look at some delectable pornographic images.. ;)

i want to know who counted up to 16.7 million colors. and how they knew for sure there weren't any more, or that they hadn't counted like 2 million of them twice on accident

Don't worry we have scientists to handle that. It's what they do on the slow days, in between creating antimatter and inventing particle colliders.

Uhmm not to burst your bubble but the primary colors are red, blue and yellow, green comes from yellow and blue. So saying all the shades of green is incorrect, its technically shades of blue and yellow mixed together. (:

There are tons of colors we can't see. Mainly because we can't see UV and Inferred. Imagine a COMPLETELY NEW COLOR! I posted a highdea about this a few days ago actually....

This ought to give you an idea of what we can see in the spectrum of wavelengths.

UV and Infrared aren't technically colors, they're radiation. Light is considered what we can see (in the visible light spectrum) so I guess if our vision had a wider range, they would be considered colors. But they aren't. Unless you're a bee.
