I guess I'm the only one Antony hasn't tried to tell that he has magic glasses yet. :P

Now, please look at it again. Now, what color does this person seem to you? The reason I'm asking is that he keeps saying on AIM that he's black, that he was born black, that he's "old and black", blah blah black, blah blah black, and the last thing that he looks to me is black.


Maybe Antony is the Black Sheep of the family or dynasty :)

Our regular online chatters should know this story well. :-)

The outline of the story... Antony does not speak English, and the reason that Antony can reply messages in English is that he has a pair of magic glasses which translates everything automatically for him.

It's a bit like Gulliver's Travels - nobody believes.

I didn't know one could use The Gimp to super-impose a pair of glasses on someone. :D

How about just making them instead of superimposing them?

I like this picture.
Don, you are good at Photoshop. I guess I only know how to draw big green arrows with Photoshop Elements.

BTW, you don't need to use Second Conditional statement, “he is blackâ€

Gee, all I did was draw some semitransparent ovals, make them reflective, and add that whatever-it-is-that-hold-glasses-together from an image I found on Google. I'm not even using the real Photoshop -- I'm still using verison 2.0 of Photoshop Elements, same as what you're using.

If you were black, there wouldn't be such a large contrast between your face and your hair in that photo ;)

Let's check the RGB values...

RGB values (each from 0 to 255) closer to 0 mean black.
