That's hard in general, right? The second problem seems like the specific issue that they're looking at the hue of one (or a small #) of pixels.. but once again isn't this expected? Maybe I don't understand the tools.. Choosing the hue of an (almost) white area seems like it will pretty much get random results. That's hard in general, right?
