Fact of the Day
(which might not be updated every day)

• Color (or colour, see spelling differences) is the visual perceptual property corresponding in humans to the categories called red, yellow, white, etc. Color derives from the spectrum of light (distribution of light energy versus wavelength) interacting in the eye with the spectral sensitivities of the light receptors. Color categories and physical specifications of color are also associated with objects, materials, light sources, etc., based on their physical properties such as light absorption, reflection, or emission spectra.

I just wanna say this is a really sweet idea. I may very well pop in here from time to time...both to help and seek guidance.

OOoh, what a great idea!

I'd actually like someone to read my VDay item entry before I send it off... well, that, and I need to make major revisions myself. I just want to see if the direction I'm taking makes sense. xDD

Um.. thank you?

@Meko Thank you~ ^^ I actually have a livejournal community just like this... except no one comes. ^^;;;

@Win thank you~ xD I'll try get to your story... sadly though, I'm currently running on dial up, on a computer that isn't mines. T-T And I'm in need for writing a story myself.
xD I try find an edit for you though. *nods*
I dunno if I can in time. @.@
