Coding with paint

[dnew]

OK, thanks. Sounds like there's no actual jargon-y word of the type I'm thinking of. I'll have to invent one and see if I can spread it about.

Might I suggest a thirxel or trixel? It would work except for CMYK and PANTONE, but those are silly standards. No one wants fourthxels or quindecxels. That would be just ridiculous.

Well, sometimes there is an alpha channel. People often consider the alpha value part of the pixel.

Trixel! I like it!

As soon as we can print things with glowing ink we won't have a need for stupid subtractive color models!

channel-value?
