Re: Bow for me as i have perfect color vision!

Yeah I originally got a 38 but a few hours later (and much more care) got a 4. lol

Lot's of the issues may be determined by display used; I'm using a CRT that's 7 years old (I know; I know; I need a new one; just not willing to edit on an LCD and still waiting on either SED or OLED technology to come here).

Seems the women see color better than the men.

Re: Bow for me as i have perfect color vision!

I got 4 on an lousy display. I think it's more difficult when the display is better calibrated and the transitions are more gradual. My wife, a MUA got 16 on our calibrated display. She insisted I should redo the test on our own display, ... but I think I won't ... 4 is almost perfect

Re: Bow for me as i have perfect color vision!

Yes, women traditionally do better on color tests than men! I took the industry standard Munsel color test (about 10x more complex) and got a perfect score- but that was 15 years ago. This time I only got a 3. I guess old age changes more than the focus of the eyes!

Re: Bow for me as i have perfect color vision!

Its more of a monitor test than an eye test. I got a slightly better than average score only!

Re: Bow for me as i have perfect color vision!

I scored a three. Not bad for an old lady with bad eyes.

Re: Bow for me as i have perfect color vision!

I scored a 4... but I did cheat slightly. I grabbed a piece of paper to hide the other rows. Nothing fancy, but I felt the peripheral vision thing was messing with my eyes. It could also be luck, as I found it difficult to discern differences between adjacent blocks in several areas.

(proof for you doubters...)

Re: Bow for me as i have perfect color vision!

4... seems like i missed something in the orange area. I blame the fact that I haven't calibrated this monitor properly (although it should be quite good).

Edit: took it again on a calibrated monitor at work. Then I scored 3, but the mistake was in the blue-green area this time.

Re: Bow for me as i have perfect color vision!

I got a zero, but I would expect no less. I look at color for a living. I'd be out a job quick if I scored too high!

I got a 4 also, not too bad for a Boomer. Tommy, the ones I missed are almost exactly the same areas as you missed.
