    ...

    No one else?

    Fine.

    The yellow bleeding into the brick at the bottom bugs me.

    The light blue strip on the left just stops without transitioning like the rest. Bugs me even more.

    I feel it very disturbing.

    Why the top arch doesn’t get to the end?

    Because 6 colors x 4 bricks wide = 24 bricks wide for the rainbow and 5 colors x 5 bricks wide = 25 bricks for the transbow.

    If only they had bought a little more paint, they could have gone 30 bricks wide and achieved perfection!

    One has six stripes and the other has five stripes, so they have to use a different number of bricks for width if each stripe will be the same width. If you used enough bricks you could get them to be the same overall width, but then it would be too large for the space.

    That's a neat idea!

    You'd have to be real careful doing it in neighborhoods near me, though -- not because the folks around here aren't progressive enough, but because brick pavements are "historic" and they'd get mad if you painted them any color. You'd have to go find one of the spots where they needed new paving and put in stamped concrete fake brick instead.

    The bricks will last longer than any paint they are covered in. Hell, adding a layer of paint will help the bricks last even longer. The things that are the worst for a brick road/walkway are being walked or driven on (and the rain, which might be the worst of all).

    Love it on top of the messaging just adding color like this to boring colors is a great beautification idea.

    Love the picture, wish we had a compression algorithm that didn't do red at half resolution. I get why it was originally done for pictures and video that might include faces. But it has ruined so many other pictures now that compression is standard for everything everywhere.

    There really needs to be an object/art oriented compression that treats all colors equally.

    We do have have compression algos that have true color. Webp by default is 4:2:0 which is throwing away a lot of chroma information, but ussually is fine for most applications. But lossless webp keeps all color info.
