to get out o the house today, i went to walmart. it was extremely busy at the cash registers when i walked in for my two items, so instead of just heading right out, i wandered the store a bit. i wandered through the paint section, looking at colors that i would like my apartment to be (instead of cookie monster blue), and came across these. i forgot to take a picture of them in the store, so i took one here at home. no matter what i did with the picture, it turned up horrible quality. its supposed to be a green color, almost a light sagey green, but not quite.

Hint for you... if you download Picasa, they've got some free photo editing tools and you can tweak the white balance even if you can't get it right from your computer (it will let you "pick a neutral color" and then if you click on white, your wall actually shows up as blue instead of the odd green color you have in the photo... and the paint chips are therefore likely closer to what they should be. I was curious about the color it was supposed to be so I saved your picture and tried it out myself... The sagey green is kind of nice (and that blue is... er... yeah, reminiscent of cookie monster).
thank you so much for the hint. i'll have to try it out. maybe this will help all other pictures taken here at home turn up in real color, and not whatever off color they end up.
