I found a cool test. It tests to see how good your colour vision is.
The lower your score, the better your colour vision is. The first time I took the test I got an 8, but I'm going be more patient next time, do it again and see if I can get my score lower.

I turned up the brightness on my screen and did the test again. This time my score was 3. :-)
I'd like to get to zero though.

I got an 11
I'm going to try it again with my laptop connected to my monitor at work and see if I get a better score.
Apparently, blues and purples are my downfall.

Um, I got a 78. What the heck am I doing wrong?
I've actually had my color vision tested extensively before and it was always quite good. I didn't have trouble seeing the hues, either.
Clearly,I misunderstood something.
I feel so drab. ;-)

No wonder I'm not all matchy-matchy when I dress. I scored a 47.

Don't worry 10der, getting a high score on this test doesn't mean your colour vision is bad. It could just mean your monitor is. :P

Apparently my colour vision is quite good, but I still wear mis-matched coloured clothing! LOL
I have no excuses. LOL

The quality of your monitor does make a difference. I got a higher score after I adjusted my monitor settings.

Interesting test, thanks Deneb.
My score was 4, which I think is quite good? My worst area is apparently blue-green.

Yeah, 4 is pretty good!
Some people get zero though! I saw this same test posted on another forum and surprisingly a lot of people got zeros!

I did it again and I scored 8 this time so I must have got worse since this morning! I suppose it depends a lot on the lighting and the quality of the monitor.

>Drag and drop the colors in each row to arrange them by hue order.
The first and last color chips are fixed. Click on "Score Test" when done.This is frighteningly vague.

It's not nearly a as much fun as tests about Aspergers.
I thought if it was just a question of ranking everything in order in a line I'd be OK at it, but I got 22.
Maybe I'd do better at a test about narcissism?

Don't feel drab. I think you're really cool (since your wonderful post).
Yaknow, that reminds me of how unpleasant it has been for me when I've had to be involved in selecting room colours.
