[Anniversary] [Graphics] Colourful Conundrum - Ends 8th June

[micky.blue.eyes]

Technology has certainly come very far in more ways than one, but I think it's time we focused upon an important aspect; colours. Several decades ago, you'd expect to only see black and white appear on most screens which is hardly a fulfilling experience and would have been a nightmare for any pixel artist due to the lack of shading. Luckily we've come incredibly far and now the average 24-bit colour screen can display in excess of 16 million colours... jeez!

Now for the challenge. I want to turn the tables and restrict the colours you can use in this competition - instead of 16 million, you will only be able to use these five:

#000000 / #333333 / #666666 / #999999 / #cccccc.

With these colours, I want you to edit the picture of a flower shown below. You may not use any other online images and you MUST STICK to the five colours provided - you are allowed to do anything else you desire; something as simple as colouring it in or maybe you want to add more leaves/some grass etc. The choice is yours - good luck! Also, if you are using MS Paint and don't understand hex values fairly well, simply screenshot the colours above > paste them onto paint > use the eyedropper/colour picker tool to select them!



*The edit will have to be drastic enough to make a visible difference e.g. if you simply make the stalk 1 pixel shorter then your entry won't count.
