The Blue/Black Gold/White Dress Question

Ok for those who don't know, this blew up in the interwebs today.
The dress below is seen by people as a Black/Blue and Some are saying its White/Gold

People are debating how this could be possible, I couldn't read much. I checked this with 10+ people in my team and only me and another colleague said it as White/Gold, rest said it is Blue/Black including a colorblind friend.

When I check the color in mspaint, it picked Blue and Brown

And the answer is

Black / Blue

Here is the Explanation from ASAP Science

Oh God.. There was an endless discussion about this image on whatsapp and Facebook the whole day.. I picked up blue and Brown from it..

So digit members too will now battle over this poorly captured photo, eh?

Looks blue+gold/brown here, but got the same pic on whatsapp and it looks Black+Blue on it. :shock:

This news has basically risen risen since Buzzfeed asked it's readers. I mean seriously who cares about a dress. What matters is inside :wink:

I have no idea why people say Gold/White. I mean How?? Everywhere I see, its blue and black clearly.
