Hi,
   I decided to try to enter the IRTC competition...  I got a great idea 
and I've been searching for information on my idea and I think it should 
be very nice...  or...  I hope so! =)

   I got a problem with color choice...  Usually, i only pick from the 
three R, G and B, and there is no problem, but my project requires 4 
colors this time and I wonder what colors to choose.. ( I must not 
choose blank nor white)  On top of that, there is already a few colors 
taken, like Blue, Green, Brown (light and dark)...  Though I think I 
could repick Blue and Green...  so I'd need either two more colors or 
better 4 more colors...  I need my colors to be colorful (!) and 
attractive and most possibly contrasting.

   If any of you can come with a choice to help me out, I'd greatly 
appreciate!  I'm very bad with colors, I have a cerebral disfunction 
which in french is called "daltonisme", I don't know what it is in 
english but it make the red pigmentation wrong in my perception.  So if 
I see a brown color and a red color (depending on lighting) they might 
look exactly the same...  or if I see two different shades of red (pink 
or whatever contains red) I will have much difficulty distinguishing 
which is the darkest...

   This said, I'm having trouble choosing good looking colors, because I 
don't really know colors, I like R, G and B because they are the primary 
colors of optics, they are Fact.  I might eventually look in a 
dictionnary to find a mythological connotation of my chosen colors, but 
this might not be of use in the final image.

Anyway, I need to choose 4 colors, thanks for any help!
   Xilo
