I can’t tell if:

  1. You labeled the colors wrong
  2. Your camera white-balance is way off
  3. You are moderately color-blind
  4. Some combination of the all of the above

Because to me, “White” looks like olive, “Magenta” looks like salmon, and “Pink” looks like clay.

Using my cells camera. Probably could've put more effort into the shot, but honestly don't want any more eBay and etsy sellers to sell my stuff using my images.

Bad images are my defense against it

Could it also be your display?

My has a pretty heavy blue light filter, and three of those swatches look red to me.

Unlikely - this is on an iPhone, which has better color accuracy than most consumer displays.

I find these oddly pleasing to look at. Maybe I'm just a sucker for rounded corners...

They feel nice too. I love chamfering and filleting my designs when possible
