What colour is the dress?
I wonder why people still care about this shit. Not like the dress color gonna change your life nor you gonna be more intelligent knowing. Its a waste of time, making you go here and there trying to find a valuable answer with actual proof. No one really knows but the one who pictured it and, if apply, modified the image(color/tone/etc). So stop with it, your doing nothing good spamming that fucking shit everywhere. NO ONE CARES!!! Lame you all are. 2015 trending... what color is that dress... what a shitty year and life people have to care about that.

Then let's make this more true... No intellectual creature cares. Animals don't care, scientists don't care. Rich people and politicians don't care. (Though some of them may be benefited if showed otherwise.)

"scientists don't care"
They are the ones explaining why people see it differently, and they're able to do this because they cared enough to study this kind of thing so I'm going to have to disagree with you there.

I don't particularly care, but it interests me. I think that alone either disproves your claims or at least weakens your argument.

Its whatever colour you monitor colour/contrast/hue settings are set to...

and whatever gamma-shifting occurs rendering all those settings meaningless

Changing the lighting in order to show what the true color is, is like taking a picture of a Yellow tulip and changing the color to Red and then saying it is a red tulip. It doesn't make sense.
It's blue and dark gold or brown.

I kind of agree. Taking a picture looking into the sun will change the color that the camera shows. I see the same color you do. I think the picture we are looking at is blue and gold/brown, but in real life the dress may be a darker blue and black. So I think you are both correct.

I've seen it as both, it started white and gold but then I looked at it an hour later and it was blue and black... it keeps changing and sometimes i can see a pale blue and black with gold highlights. I'm so confused!

It's Blue (or Light Blue) and Dark Gold (or Brown). There's nothing White in it. There's nothing Black in it.

The Psych boys have done a lot of experiments on this. Basically, the human mind does a lot of interpretation, but most people don't realize this and therefore do not take it into account when making decisions. That is how we get "optical illusions" which are not really illusions at all but rather our brain trying to interpret things as something other than what they are. There is reality, and then there is what we would desire reality to be. Which one we perceive depends upon how willing we are to accept disappointment.

All I know is that the person who put up the original picture said herself that the dress is blue & black

I have an IPS monitor and am thus impervious to this gamma shifting nonsense people experience.

I'm using a crt monitor with good color. I see a light blue (kind of like a sky blue with a tiny bit of purple mixed in) and the other color looks like a gold or orange towards the top and brown as you go farther down the dress.
It's a bad picture because it was taken looking into the sun. The only reason I can think why people would see this as black and white would be a bad quality or improperly adjusted lcd monitor or viewing it at the wrong angle on an lcd.

Like I already argued before, color is superior as a term for a variety of reasons. The term "color" is based off the direct Latin term and even though we're speaking English, there is no rational basis to add the "u". It's nothing more than a linguistic corruption of a "mongrel" language which needs rectification. Last I checked, English uses many words, and even phrases, taken directly from Latin, so your argument that English being a "mongrel" language and how you're speaking English (and not Latin) doesn't really hold.
Many words in the English language were borrowed indirectly from Latin, among other languages. Like I stated before, there is no rational basis for keeping the "u", aside from regional biases and an affinity for Old French—a bastardization of the Latin language, might I add.
I am being entirely serious, though I brought this up for my own amusement because I know people would disagree and defend their u's. This has nothing to do with my country or any nationalism for it, however, and your accusation of that only exposes your inherent bias against the United States. Anyway, with all due respect to my country, I seriously doubt many people know why "color" is superior to "colour", only that they think it is because they were taught that way. Unlike them, however, I have a rational argument to support my decision. I could easily say that you're a silly, little Bongolian with a fetish for u's because he can't into reasoned English, but that leads us nowhere tasteful, now does it?
I follow British English grammatical rules because it relies on logical structure and not convenience or convention. I follow most American English spellings, however, because I greatly respect Noah Webster's simplification and refinement of the English language and the rational bases for these changes are wholly valid.

At first, I could see it white and gold and I thought "There's not way it could be blue and black", but then, after I looked at the picture through my phone camera, I started seeing it black and blue and now that's how I see it everywhere, I personally think that it's the lighting that is causing this difference of perception.

There seems to be a debate over on Tumbrl about a dress and what colour it is. People seem to be divided into two groups. To those who see it as blue and black and to those who see is as white and gold. I thought it would be interesting to see your view of the matter and possibly settle the debate.
So the big question is: What colour is the dress?
Also another thing: Why do you think people are seeing it differently?
