Hi Gert,

saturation is a measure of how vivid a colour is, brightness is a
measure of its brightness :) so a deep green would be both dark
and saturated, whereas a light leaf green is perhaps not so
saturated, and brighter.

To see the difference, use the color picker in HSV mode, and
change the S and V sliders independently (Value and Brightness
are very closely related).

Cheers,
Dave.
