What colour shirt would you wear?

[kythe]

I'd wear blue because I'm a nurse and would want to stay in the medical field. However, I wouldn't wear one of those mini-skirts because I wouldn't fit into it...

Just for asking, what field does green represent?

Command. In the first two seasons, the command color was green, but the way the materials interacted with the camera made it appear gold (which was later decided to be the true color of the uniform for later productions). Consequently, all accessory uniforms for command (dress uniforms, the captain's wraparound) were green. The option in the poll just notes that fact and allows people to say they want the captain's alternate uniform.

Velour is a tricky mistress.

 

[Kemaiku]

Red. Bring it.

 

[cooleddie74]

Blue.

I imagine I'd be in the sciences or medical division anyways.

I can't help but think I'd end up the ship's librarian, or a contributor to Memory Alpha.

Then may I recruit you as my ships Librarian?

Maybe... whaddo I have to do?

I'd wear the blue/green jumpsuit from "What are little girls made of". Ya know, just to be different. Handy too, when helping Scotty overhaul the engines.

If you were serving in Starfleet (or, if you prefer, aboard the Enterprise), what colour shirt would you wear?

Certainly not gold, seeing how it was an optical illusion.

 

[TheGodfatherSJP]

Since I'm a techie, and techie's fix things, that makes me an Engineer. So...RED!

Oh CRAP! Wait, can I take my vote back? <gulp>

Also, the three TOS uniform colors were deliberately chosen: Green, Red and Blue, in order to sell the new color TVs which were beginning to appear on the scene.

Just like NBC's peacock logo was specifically designed to advertise the fact that they broadcast in color.

I've always thought gold, blue and red made more sense.

Agreed. Primary colours rock

As counter-intuitive as it may be, the phosphors in TV screens (and the sub-pixels in LCD panels) happen to be red, green, and blue. Hence the RGB color scale.

But, iirc, newspapers are indeed Red, Blue, and Yellow (and black i think)

Yep. I'm more of a print-head. For pigments, it's technically magenta, cyan, and yellow. It's the light spectrum where the RGB comes in.

CMYK - the K is for black.

I know, but the only black uniforms we saw were in the photoshop thread.
