Using browser zoom to make the pieces bigger really helps!

What is "hue order"?

What is "hue order"?

On each of the four lines the extreme end colours are fixed. Starting at either end the hue order is the decrease/increase of the base colour of wherever you start. i.e. progressive dark to light or vice versa.

... lets just say I am still haunted by my (shock) defeat in the chess final at primary school

[theblether]

I've got too much glare on my screen to do the test, that, plus the fact that I'm too lazy.

Perfect

No cheat, but I must confess I spent 5 years in art school and had more than one course on color theory. I knew to rest my eyes periodically, and I think that makes a big difference. To be fair they shouldn't of had so much contrast around the images as the white burns in your retina. They should have had they test on a field of grey.

I am jealous and, if I knew how to, I would ignore all future posts from you...

Interesting test although quite tricky. People who haven't done it most probably think the low scores like 0 or 4 are bad, but it's the other way around - the lower the number, the better you did! Still can't see where my errors were though lol.

Reminds me of an old schoolmate who suffered from red/green colour blindness. He was quite open about it and not really embarrassed. In art class you could put the red and green paint pots next to each other and he couldn't distinguish them.

It is easy to ignore me but what fun would that be. Anyhow living with good color vision is a punishment of its own. i am forced to vividly see what colors are commonly put together here. Have you ever been to a standard Thai tile shop? 90 % of the patterns were originally suggested as a joke but no one caught on.

That is a shame for him but makes me feel better about my eyesight... thanks

I got 11.

First time I've seen a test like that...........all others have been the coloured dots with numbers embedded in them, the standard colour-blindness test.

Had to look away from the screen a few times though.

A bit of fun.

Cheers.

If you are over the age of 50 then you probably have the beginnings of cataract

where the lens in the eye gradually yellows and eventually clouds completely.

It is quite a simple operation to have the lens replaced and afterwards

the whiteness of white and the vibrancy of the colours is amazing.

The test is worthless unless done under controlled conditions. E.g. somebody zooming in, versus others that get bored halfway through.

Once I took off my rose coloured glasses the world looked a lot better.
