Draws this one again — same subject and the same people, a new palette and a new angle on it, described afresh. It replaces the drawing on this page for everyone, until somebody draws another. Costs the site about eight cents, and a few seconds.

Who does Lorem Ipsum leave out?
Writing — read the piece
- Meant to show
- A screen reader user in a research session, listening to a prototype that has nothing in it to hear.
- Asked for
- A man at a laptop wearing headphones, listening intently to a prototype of gray placeholder blocks, notebook untouched beside him
- Drawn with (triad)
#8e2d36#4bc84f#4046bd
Why these three
Three points spaced evenly around the wheel — the furthest apart three hues can be.
- SeedSHA-256 of
who-does-lorem-ipsum-leave-out, which is the same every time and different for every piece. - Base hueThe first two bytes as a fraction of 65,535, times 360 = 2°.
- GeometryThe third byte modulo 4 picks triad, which adds 0°, 120°, 240°.
- WobbleThree more bytes shift each by up to ±12° — −7.8°, +0.3°, −4.8° — so two pieces that draw the same geometry are still not the same shape on the wheel.
- Result
#8e2d36354° at 68% saturation, 55% value#4bc84f122° at 62% saturation, 78% value#4046bd237° at 66% saturation, 74% value
Saturation never drops below 72% and value never below 78%, which is what keeps a hue reading as the color it was chosen to be rather than as a dark. More on how these are made.
