This helped me a lot! Also, I just wanted to point out that in the description of the flag, there’s a typo that makes the word “flag” into “f*g” ^ ^;
LOL. I don’t think so 🙂
Who makes paint with his codes?
CMYK codes are wrong 🙁
The CMYK are calculated from the hexadecimal colour codes (RGB, if you like). They are close approximations. True CMYK colors are dependent on the printer, quality of the ink, the material (color, nature and texture) on which the printing is to take place etc.
Hope this helps.
The CMYK colours are completely off I’m afraid.
They are using values below 1 so for example the electric red – CMYK: 0, 1, 1, 0.094 when you enter those values the swatch comes out white as there is no value high enough to make the magenta and yellow strong enough to make red. The red should be more close to C:0 M:99 Y:100 K:0
Every colour is the same – the values for each colour makes 6 shades of white.
They have not been taken from the RGB or HEX properly and will never produce a close approximation.
We’ve displayed CMYK values in decimal form. In percentages, the values for the LGBT flag would be as follows:
Red: cmyk(0,100,100,9.4)
Orange: cmyk(0,45,100,0)
Yellow: cmyk(0,6.2,100,0)
Green: cmyk(100,0,75.9,49.4)
Blue: cmyk(100,73.3,0,0)
Purple: cmyk(13.8,100,0,46.2)
Just multiply the decimals by 100 to get the numbers in percentages.
Hope this helps.
Why is it purple
All the above work fine except the purple seems off. I’m in illustrator CMYK mode and I have the first five colors working fine except for the purple; it is more of a burgundy color. When I put hex #760089, it looks fine, like what is showing in the website’s images.
I double checked: 13.8, 100, 0, 46.2
To get the purple in CMYK use
C: 3
M: 100
Y: 9
K: 46
I’m bi and I’m trying to make all the flags that I know of off the top of my head. So far, I just have the original pride redesigned flag, the bisexual flag (had to fit myself in there somewhere), the transgender flag, and I’m working on the pansexual flag right now.
