Cool! Did you use Paint, or something else.

Great trick. I fooled both my brother and my dad. My brother started doing math in his head and figured out that it would always come to orange. I'm surprised my dad didn't figure any of it out on his own. :) It's great. Mine is basically the same, only I don't have color ink, so I had to cut out some vinyl sticker and use that instead.

:'( i have a problem... i am Portuguese, so the numbers aren't like: one, two etc... They are like: um, dois,tres,etc

If someone has some idea...

Hiyadudez says:

List the numbers from 1-6 for me in Portugese, I can possibly figure it out.

Jun 16, 2010. 3:24 PMRekaw says:

Number~Portuguese 1~Um 2~Dois 3~Três 4~Quatro 5~Cinco 6~Seis I hope you can do it...i really really really love your trick... its amazing...

You can make orange fourth from the top since dois, tres, and seis have four letters than you have the number four which you can just count to, also make the orange on the bottom so you can just count one from the bottom for um, but you would only have four colors instead. As for cinco you would still count from the bottom but because theirs only four colors you would just go right back to orange.
