the most asinine thing is stumping my brain ... what IS the proper colour order for stuff ... im organizing my stamps by colour ... rn its like: "white", "grey", "black", "brown", "red", "orange", "yellow", "green", "blue", "purple", "pink" (based off my filter list), but should brown be between red and orange ...

that is always the question when dealing with colors not in the rainbow...... i personally would do brown before red, like how you have it (even though brown is technially dark orange) that way it wont break up red from orange. the hardest thing for me when organizing things by color is when they vary a lot in value as well as hue, because of course i want to keep it in hue order, but i dont want dark next to light
yeah its a mess, and im very bad w/differentiating like ... what the 'central' colour is to assign it a main colour too. cause like something thats 90% black but has a very vibrant red text to me is Red, not Black. but something with a primary black, but has a more muted blue/yellow, to me is Black, and not those colours (kinda also why im doing a misc where its way too many colours to make one the Central Choice)
i usually go warm pink - [regular roygbiv] - cool pink - white - grey - black - brown when i organize art supplies! its definitely a soft science, very difficult to categorize firmly
hoh ... that makes sense w/the transition of warm pink to reds and purple --> cool pinks .. i think brown is def my big issue in placement rn cause my brain is thrown off by brown to red to orange
I tend to do rainbow order with pink / magenta before purple, then black -> grey -> white -> brown. I think that's because I'm used to crayon boxes being laid out like that.
