[edit] Images
I uploaded a photograph at different color depths, but I am very displeased with my formatting. If someone could reformat these images without destroying detail, I would be grateful. The problem with putting the pictures in a gallery or making them smaller thumbs is that the computer rounds (if that is the correct word) some of the colors, creating shades of grey in a b&w image and colors that do not exist in the color depth, etc. Thegreenj 21:59, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
Bold textThis page needs cleanup. The Direct color section is a haphazard, unorganized list of color depths. I don't know how, but that needs to be cleaned up. --Josh Lee 21:31, Jan 21, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Indexed Color
This section gives the feeling there is only PC graphics card in the world... --Diego 13:14, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Beyond True Color
This article begins discussing color depth in terms of Bits Per Pixel. However, the "Beyond True Color" section introduces the term Bits Per Channel. In this context, what does channel refer to? I am assuming that channel refers to the individual colors in a pixel, RGB. Therefore, would 24 bits per pixel = 8 bits per channel? So when this section states that human vision can see at best about 10 bits per channel, would that be equivalent to 30 bits per pixel?
[edit] RAW format
This page should mention RAW camera formats since one advantage many such formats provide is 12-bit-per-channel color. —Ben FrantzDale 13:33, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
