78% with just 4 color bars. Super fun game. Problem is, I got a 78% score with just 4 horizontal color bars. https://ibb.co/Mpvt1c2 EDIT: why the downvotes?

77% with just two. https://i.imgur.com/qlmmGL9.png

71% with one: https://vole.wtf/clone-a-lisa/

It feels like a solid gray patch with the default color would have a slightly higher percentage but I'm having a hard time getting an even enough spray to say it's from the shade and not density variations between the light/dark portions.

Sadly for me, using single color leaving the middle and top brighter was significantly better than my actual attempts hitting near 80.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I really wanted to hit 85% but the best I could do was 84.4% https://i.imgur.com/t3saf5D.jpeg The scoring system could try to account for perceptual color differences, perhaps by ramping up the saturation of both images when calculating the differences. Since the original painting is relatively desaturated the current scoring mostly incentivizes focusing on light/dark rather than shades of color. Lots of other great…

What input device did you use (mouse, finger, touchpad, etc. ) ?

iPad + pencil

This doesn't work well with browser extensions which darken web pages color themes (like "Dark Reader"), as all the painting colors will be rendered to black. I know It might be obvious but having those extension always on I tend to forget they sometime can cause some visibility issues, so I'm leaving this here :)

I have Dark Reader and had no issues. There's a global setting in Dark Reader to "Detect dark theme" pages -- when that is enabled, this game is automatically detected as using a dark theme so the Dark Reader plugin is disabled for the page.

But the Clone-a-Lisa page does not use a native dark theme, and the problem seem to be just with the paint colors, which in my case for some reason are altered by Dark Reader. It could also be that it was a temporarily glitch as I've noticed that color manipulation by Dark Reader can be inconsistent at times (could be due to DOM loading timing and stuff like that).
