Description
Primary colours are sets of colours that can be combined to make a useful range (gamut) of colours. For human applications, three are often used; for additive combination of colours, as in overlapping projected lights or in CRT displays, the primary colours normally used are red, green, and blue.Primary colours are not a fundamental property of light but are often related to the physiological response of the eye to light. Fundamentally, light is a continuous spectrum of the wavelengths that can be detected by the human eye, an infinite-dimensional stimulus space. However, the human eye normally contains only three types of colour receptors called cone cells. Each colour receptor responds to different ranges of the colour spectrum. Humans and other species with three such types of colour receptors are known as trichromats. These species respond to the light stimulus via a three-dimensional sensation, which can generally be modelled as a mixture of three primary colours.

Nice pic, but the red part is slightly eerie. It looks like a giant virgina with eyes.
I thought primary colours were colours that couldn't be made from any other colour, hence yellow should replace green.

"For subtractive combination of colors, as in mixing of pigments or dyes, such as in printing, the primaries normally used are magenta, cyan, and yellow."
so there you go and i think you probably see vaginas in everything

I wish.
Why does that sound like a quote. So, like I said, no green then.
