        I dunno...if Ranma-chan is the female version of Ranma-kun...why
does she 
have red hair?

in my previous post to you about the color->grayscale shading..
i wasn't thinking.....

what i meant was the way Rumiko Takahashi
renders different colors in gray-scale.  Like I said, light
hair is half-toned or just white.  Just look at the Happi Love 
Pills beach episode(at the various beach girls' hair), or Akane's
clothes throughout the issues, or Cologne's hair, or Tsubasa's 
hair.  Yet Ranma-chan's hair is a solid black.  That must mean
she has dark-colored hair...and I vote that color is black.

That's a vote.. not proof...

If you were to watch an old Marx Bros movie, (The Coconuts is a good
example) everyone refers to Harpos'  hair as being red. Fine and good. I
later learned (in school and in various film books) that black and white
films show anything red with BLACK! How does that explain Hapro's hair on
film? Simple.. they used a blonde wig.

As a sidenote.. the "grass" at the auction scene is actually a purple shag rug.

All in all.. pick the color you like.. It's a matter of personal prefrence,
anyway.
