Title: Check this out!
Post by: Shadow on September 29, 2017, 10:47:23 AM
Ever wonder how your eyes are doing as you get older, er, "wiser"? (My Grandfather taught us you don't get older, just wiser.   ;)  ) 
Here's a cool test to see how you are doing.

Lynn, might be interesting to try it on your good screen and your laptop screen and see if it makes a difference.

My good (and only) screen IS my laptop. I feared the worst but my score (of 4) is good enough for me. Interesting test! Both for eyes and screens.

But I do wonder why more than 8% of men but less than 0.5% of women have color deficiency. Doesn't seem fair, somehow.

Hey Candy!! we missed you.. where you bin.... :hug:

I've been working on the last of my projects before the weather comes in to make it to cold. I've repainted the exterior of our home. Now I'm working on repainting the decking.  I just put the roast in and now I can go to the back deck to continue peeling off the old paint.  On top of that. I've put down new flooring in the entry and one bedroom.  The master bedroom (which isn't very big) just has it's old shower removed and a new one put in.  Before that was done, I had to take out an old closet and clean the area.   My husband uses a wheelchair for most thing and we're planning for the future. 

Past that.... eating bon bons.  ;)  I've miss you all, too!!

Wow, Candy, I got wore-out just reading about all you've done!

I think multi-talented is a nice way of saying I'm crazy!!  Shadow.  And Pat, I feel your pain!  I mean really I do. 

I look often in the galleries, but about the time I ponder it, I figure I'd better wait till I have time to give.

Score: 0. When I saw that I thought I failed until I read underneath lol.

My hubby would look at that test and ask what the difference is in any of them. He cannot see subtle colour changes in any colour. We used to have a pale green and a fawn coloured coffee cup. Every time he'd ask which one was his, I'd have to say left or right as they both looked the same.

You have been busy Candy, looks great.

Lynn, the guy that wrote the article for the test said he gets between 1 and 4.  ;)
Have a couple of sibs who are in the same boat as your hubby Tess. They are both color blind. If you are curious about how that looks, you can open a pic in PS and go to View > Proof > Color blindness. They have both types listed at the bottom.

My husband also could not tell the difference with most of the nuances.
I scored 0 so it seems that my monitor is showing the colors right after all?
The Colormunki I own broke.   I have a Nec monitor so I ordered a NEC calibrator to match it.   :)
