It took a while until I realized that the black parts were land and gray was water.

Am I the only one who feel like it should be the reverse?



No, it was the same for me. Seas are dark blue while landmasses are white near the poles, green in most other places and sandy yellow in deserts - light colours. It makes me expect lands to be light and seas to be dark, even on a stylised monochrome globe.


Nope. I was wondering what kind of planet it was.
