I'm Red-Green color blind. I look at those things and only see about four colors per bar. I scored 191. :innocent:

I had a weird flashback to when I was younger, stuck waiting in the makeup aisle with my sister and mom. It paid off though, got a 0.

Colors are really weird and vivid for me right now. I went partially blind in one eye a few years back and just now got a contact that helps significantly, and I swear, it's like going from black and white to color. It's almost flashback inducing. I couldn't look at that page for more than a few seconds.

19 on my laptop, I'll have to see how I do on a real display.
I got a 15, on an ASUS notebook. The screen isn't the best nor is the graphics card, so I may be capable of a slightly lower score. In my mid twenties, male.

I got a three.
I got perfect.
which is surprising, because this dell U2311H only has 6bits of colour + dithering.
The reds were difficult due to poor colour reproduction of reds in general.
I got a 28. I could blame it on just waking up and only one sip of coffee but the truth is I had to ask the clerk at the store the other day what color socks I was buying. Luckily Brooks Brothers has numbered codes for their socks, which helped me find more browns using the tag.
...at home I have them separated by color in little drawers, but it's tough for me to return them there after the laundry. :(

It gave me a 69. My eyes aren't that great and with my 40th birthday coming up I suppose they have gotten worse. They have been subjected to laser surgery once. Still, I still get 1.0 0.9 corrected vision so colors can be vague if they like. :)

I've taken this test 3 times and got a perfect score. It's part of my job running the color management dept of a printing company.

Ya, I was going to say that the monitors people are using are going to be a crutch or help more than anything. Five different monitors, six different results!

Based on your information, below is how your score compares to those of others with similar demographic information.
Your score: 8
Gender: Male
Age range: 30-39
Best score for your gender and age range: 0
Highest score for your gender and age range: 1520
0 ( Perfect Color Acuity )
99 ( Low Color Acuity )
I got a 0. I guess that means I'm ok to continue choosing colors for people's buildings.
I lost it on just the first row. No way could I concentrate on that long enough to get a real score. If you need to enter something for me, write down "potato"
La profundidad de la galleta todavía está por verse.

I got a perfect score. Toward the end I had to look away from the screen a few times and close my eyes to give them a break.

I definitely did some rearranging after looking away from screen for a few minutes and coming back.
Still need to find a minute to do test on nice IPS or CRT.

I think galleta translates to biscuit for the British, et al. Americans, not so much.

Perfect score just now. I tried it late last night (midnight) in the dark and had a very difficult time with it.

I need to try it at home with a better monitor. The one at work has a nice blue hue to it which I think made it more difficult.

I am assuming lower is better, but I am quite fabulously color-blind, just like my maternal grandfather and brother. A couple of those rows looked the same all the way across.
41... I could have taken more time. I'll send this to the wife, who is an artist and see what she does.
I thought about going and trying again, but decided better of it and will just stick with my original score of "potato".
32 for me - thought I had done better than that

11 on a laptop in poor lighting.
I could probably sneak it a little better with a proper set up, but not much. That was reasonably tough - and I'm used to playing with Pantone swatches!
In my architecture office we had two 0's, one 10, one 12, and one 60.
Guess which one we won't be letting pick colors anymore?
We didn't even bother to give it to the color blind person.

They clearly don't factor in ADD.

I assumed this too, and just gave myself a score of potato. On a funny note, had some friends over for dinner last night. Their son has not taken his ADD med for three days, and was trying to tell us how good he was doing. He broke off in mid sentence and went and looked at something pinned to the bulletin board in our kitchen.
Should have just stayed with potato. I got a 126.

I knew I was somewhat color blind when I was rejected for a job in the Navy as a nuclear electronics technician. I scored high on the ASVAB, but couldn't see the numbers on one of the color blind test charts. I'll never forget the disappointed look on the recruiter's face.
I scored a 113 on this test, but to me I thought I had the colors perfect.
