Partially colourblind?

Posted in On the Intertron, Photography by Will on August 21, 2006.

I found this article by a colo[u]r blind web designer (via digg) quite interesting… at the bottom of the article he links to a bunch of tests for colour blindness.

I’ve always had a bit of difficulty with these - but I was just assuming it was just a focus issue. The final image on page 1 was the thing that convinced me that there might be a slight insensitivity in the red-green area.

My father is red-green colourblind, so I guess it shouldn’t be that big of a suprise.

I can see all the colours quite fine (afaik), in normal circumstances - and I have no trouble with a RGB colour pallete - so I’m guessing it’s just a very slight insensitivity.

Edit: Well… maybe not… I can see them fine on my LCD panel at home, it’s probably just the screwy work laptop screen…

    Or is that they are spiking the water at work with some sedatives and hallucinagens? :)

    I don’t drink the water at work… THEY use it to recharge the neural implant that spies on you.

    Oh no, the spiders! The spiders are coming… aaargh..
