@anonymolol This method only allows you to see view a more opaque version of the colour below. Transparent white can't be imagined because it's a nonsense concept. You are essentially trying to imagine the effect a filter with no filter-like properties has on colour. It's about as profound as asking someone to imagine something they can't imagine.

Transparent is a quality, rather than a color.
If I look through a transparent green glass, I can see an object that is on the other side of the glass with no loss of clarity. It will look green, of course, but it's image is sharp.
But this won't work with White glass. The image always suffers some sort of degradation.

It seems like then by its definition transparent does not have a color. I think you said something about being able to see green transparent, how exactly?
-
For a think to be transparent, you must be able to look through it and see what is on the other side with no loss of clarity.
Some things are tranlucent. Translucense is different. Translucent things let some light through, but not a clear image.

Can't imagine a transparent white? That got a big huh? on my part. I can, either I do not understand what you mean by transparent white, or, um, I do not understand what you mean by transparent white.
I mean you can create a white transparency in Photoshop real easy...

I agree with you, you brilliant ornery person :).

white isn't a color. maybe that's the problem.

Yes, that could be it !

also as lorezapocalypse said, you can create images easily in photoshop of say, a matte white square on top of whatever picture you want and be able to set the alpha to whatever level of transparency you like.
so really whatever that dude was saying in his book doesnt pass the fact test. i mean i'm sure that there are limitations on our visual imagination, but "transparent white" is both imaginable and easily created
but otherwise, as a mathematician myself, i enjoy your math thought process

It's going to be a good mental exercise. I"ll gradually decrease the alpha as I visualize translucent white, till I arrive at transparent.
Glad you like the thought process, anonymolol.
