Test how well you can see color hues
I found this interesting, it's an online version of the FM 100 hue test (which I haven't heard of before). I scored 16, how about you? http://www.xrite.com/custom_page.aspx?PageID=77 Jan 18 13 10:18 pm Link Did the first try pretty quick and got an 8. Challenge accepted, spent a few more minutes the second time around and got a 0. Jan 18 13 11:06 pm Link Long time ago did the test and was 4, repeated and got 0, this time 4 again... Not 100% sure but I guess +- the same errors Jan 18 13 11:15 pm Link Yeah, i'm always pretty happy with my results on that test. On the downside, when my wife looks at what I'm wearing and asks if I'm colorblind, i know i really just have terrible fashion sense. Jan 19 13 02:17 am Link just did it while being up for 20 hours and working on photo's for the last 5. got a score of 4 Jan 19 13 03:24 am Link My try. Jan 19 13 10:04 am Link I did 3 Jan 19 13 10:20 am Link Just did it now first try, and i got 3, not bad when i know i was working on my Dell laptop at dark room sleepy and the monitor is not that perfect and didn't calibrate it again long time ago since 2 years. Jan 19 13 12:16 pm Link I'm going to pray that my score of 20 can be attributed to a laptop that isn't color managed. But now my head is throbbing and I'm questioning my career choice.

I'm just going to chalk it up to a laptop with an un-calibrated matte screen + after midnight + staring at it for too long. Jan 19 13 04:30 pm Link 18, oh well. Jan 19 13 05:53 pm Link Holy poops I got a 0. Is that good? I'm a bit confused with the scoring system. Jan 19 13 06:28 pm Link Nicole Packs wrote: Zero is perfect. Jan 19 13 06:42 pm Link Hadn't calibrated for a week, got a 4. Hastily calibrated and tried again, got a 0. Yay for calibration.

Jan 19 13 09:42 pm Link I hit 46 pretty bad OMG! Jan 19 13 09:42 pm Link YRG I also got a bad score xD I blame the fact that it's almost 2 in the morning here and staring at the color spectrum on the test for too long.....the colors starts jumping around each other. and blaaaah x_X Jan 19 13 10:57 pm Link no use I am colorblind.

Definitely had to force myself to look up at the wall and refocus every thirty seconds or so.

Jan 19 13 11:28 pm Link i can see the difference in contrast most people that are colorblind are red, green color blind my color blindness is almost complete. Jan 19 13 11:36 pm Link actually surprised I did as well as I did.... a 3. Jan 20 13 12:20 am Link Here is a tip. Take one square and move it around way off from where it should be and you will see much more objectively, it doesn't give you time for your eyes to adapt. It's the same principle as when you move the opacity slider really quickly left and right and don't let your eyes adapt so you can find the sweet spot. Apply the same principle here and you should beat the game without to much trouble. Remember: the slower you wait to move the square around the bigger the chance of tricking yourself. My score. Cheers! Jan 20 13 02:11 am Link I need to do this again at a different time of the day with my glasses on lol, 11 Jan 20 13 02:24 am Link my try )) Your score: 4 Gender: Male Age range: 30-39 Best score for your gender and age range: 0 Highest score for your gender and age range: 1520 Jan 20 13 06:23 am Link I started it then got bored. Probably means I have ADT Jan 20 13 06:37 am Link That was fun (and satisfying ) Jan 20 13 06:41 am Link Jeff Fiore wrote: Adenosine triphosphate? Jan 21 13 03:57 pm Link Yay Zero! I wonder how different the world would look to someone that got a score of 30 or something compared to way people with perfect vision or close to perfect vision see colours. Jan 21 13 06:46 pm Link 4 Jan 21 13 07:00 pm Link eh 20 on a laptop... oh well Jan 21 13 07:08 pm Link Jan 21 13 08:17 pm Link I recalibrate the monitor with a better hardware and also now it is midday and the vision is not tired... Jan 22 13 06:01 am Link I scored 7 with my laptop Jan 22 13 11:07 am Link 0 with my 6-bit uncalibrated TN monitor. Jan 22 13 11:32 pm Link I got an 8. I've taken the test before. Don't remember my score, but it seems like it was about the same. Highest score for people in my age group (60-69) was 1970. (Hey, that was a pretty good year. A guy at the AP nominated me for "Oklahoma Newsman of the Year." I came in second. No cigar.) How come the scale only goes to 99? lol I haven't calibrated my monitor in about six months though. Jan 23 13 12:07 am Link Got 3. Jan 23 13 01:27 am Link 15. I'm not surprised, I have a tough time with white balance. (Don't say you didn't notice:-) But it's OK, I usually work with bright colors! Jan 23 13 01:49 pm Link I got an 11. Ive scored lower before on different monitors and when my eyes werent already hurting me like they are today. I always think its interesting to watch how other people try to complete the test. Almost everyone Ive had take the test in front of me actually tries to go one tile at a time from the right or the left. They spend a lot of time on it and get frustrated. Ive always found it easier to just start moving the colors in their respective directions and then order them after theyre sorted (order the whole group of blues, for example, instead of trying to pick which exact blue goes next with a bunch of green tiles in the way) Edit: just re-took it with the lights off and scored a 0 Jan 23 13 03:05 pm Link I love that test. I scored a zero on my monitor. I scored an 8 on my Mom's, so calibration makes a difference. Jan 23 13 03:56 pm Link |
