[edit] Grey or gray? Uh, I mean blue?

Strong Sad's colors in Super NES seem difficult to discern for a game that only has fifteen colors. Part of that is due to the video quality (which might be better on the DVD version) as well as the vignetting. However, I do think Strong Sad's legs are grey. Consider this with regard to the group pic:

1. The fifteen colors are red, orange, yellow, lime green, dark green, cyan, blue, reddish brown, taupe, peach, purple, black, grey, light grey and white.
2. Blue is already represented by Homestar's hat, and Strong Sad's lower body definitely seems like a different color with less saturation.
3. Also his back leg is a darker but otherwise similar color to the rest of his lower body. There are two shades of grey, but cyan and blue would be very different in hue.
4. His lower body is also the same color as the background, which is a pattern (or a stamp?) using shades of grey (including white).

His upper body I'm less clear on. Pom Pom is definitely lime green and orange here, but the floor could either be dark green or yellow, which could make The Cheat yellow or peach, and Strong Sad's upper body is either the same or a slightly lighter but similar color. However, I feel more strongly that his lower body is grey. DEI DAT VM^┌_{datvm center}\^{super contra}_┘ 21:47, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
