Jan 9	revised	Do most web designers make their own textures? added 43 characters in body
Jan 9	comment	Do most web designers make their own textures? It's also not uncommon to find an interesting texture in real life, take a photo of it, and turn that into a repeating texture. Not quite as easy as it sounds as the lighting for the photo has to be extremely flat, and getting it to repeat seamlessly isn't easy (there are tutorials, don't know any off the top of my head), but it's not hugely difficult. Improvising a softbox by holding thin paper in front of a normal bulb is often enough for the photo.

Jan 8	comment	Is there a metric for “apparent” chroma? Also, consider asking at the Cognitive Science stack exchange site. They should be able to advise on whether there's good baseline data on perceived chroma which could get you started.
Jan 8	comment	Is there a metric for “apparent” chroma? It's not quite what you're asking for, but I've seen efforts to get a quantifiable measure of perceived lightness and darkness of colours, like what Photoshop uses in Convert to Grayscale making greens lighter than equivalent reds. Here's an article on it - alienryderflex.com/hsp.html. I'm sure an equivalent for saturation is possible. The science of objectively measuring subjective perception is called psychophysics, might be a good place to look.

Jan 3	comment	How would I know how good of a designer I am? Fair point, I read the post as, sometimes he likes his work, sometimes he doesn't, and he doesn't like the uncertainty and wants to know where he really stands. So I'm saying: that uncertainty is normal, and actually maybe he needs a little more of it and to embrace it and use it. I agree it's hard to tell what's meant in the original post.

Jan 3	comment	How would I know how good of a designer I am? +1 There's a really good interesting question in this somewhere. I'm too full of flu to figure out how to improve it right now, but there's a real, answerable universal concern behind this.
