I think that I may be slightly color blind! Ahhh! I can see all of the numbers except for the middle left, which is supposed to be "45." In the test at the bottom, I also see a 5 (normal vision) not a 2 (red/green color blindness). I wonder what this means???
Nope -- I'm a northern California native. I've been to Orange County though.
Whew! Off the hook. Paul Marcus was my manager when I was 11 years old and delivered papers for The Register. He would know a few things about me =)
It could be the one who owns a wine shop here in Oakland. I've never actually met him, but he must be a nice guy because I know he used to get a LOT of my phone calls (my number was unlisted) and never came around to beat me up ....
There should really be little problem with a single color. I'm typical red green colorblind and I've encountered very few problems in my life, outside of matching clothes. Apparently I'm somewhat pattern blind too in that aspect. At any rate, color blind voters shouldn't be a huge problem as long as you aren't submitting photos of the dots test.
I found a website that supposedly simulates colorblindness. It's vischeck.com. None of the actual web functions worked for me but they have a photoshop plugin which I downloaded. I pulled Kosta's photo from the Orange thread and ran the three different filters on it.
original
Deuteranope (a form of red/green color deficit)
Protanope (another form of red/green color deficit)
Tritanope (a blue/yellow deficit- very rare)
I'm not sure how differenly it would fare with other photos, this is the only one I've tried it with. The website also has an algorithm that's supposed to fix pictures for people with colorblindness. Anyway, these might be interesting to play around with.
OK, now your just messing with my head, right? Those first three are really all the same picture, aren't they? ;)
Oh, but if it eases anyone's fears, they do all (except the last one) look orange to me. :)
