p.2 #1 · Test Your Color IQ

I did the test three times and got 119, 130 and 101 (on three different computers with three different monitors). I seem to have trouble with the blue/greens. I might have some color blindness I guess

I like to desaturate images abit, specially the skies. Love b&w!

I scored 0 in less then 5 minutes. Which leaves me with one big question--

Why is it so darn hard for me to decide the right color balance when editing my photos? The most difficult part of editing for me.

Inquiring minds want to know.

4 in 4 minutes at age almost 40 on a calibrated Macbook Pro.

How this would prove one doesn't need calibration hardware is beyond me. For all I care, the colors in those bars could be completely off but I could still place them in correct order. Then again, most of Bifurcator's posts baffle me

Score of 8, 5 minutes for the test, 48 year old eyes, at work, under florescent lighting on a calibrated laptop. The errors were in the blue/green transition tones (which are the weakness of my monitor, but also of my eyes). Overall, I'm pretty happy with that. Thanks for the link.

Peace,

Todd

p.2 #14 · Test Your Color IQ

I've taken the test a couple of times in the past and never did better than 4 or 5, but on this try I took advice from a member above and took my eyes away from the screen from time to time to let my eyes rest. I also held a white envelope over the segments I wasn't working on to reduce stimulation. I spent about five minutes and scored ZERO. My baby blues are in their 69th year of helping me navigate through this world. My monitor is a 23" Apple Cinema Display.

I scored a 4 ...

I guess I can live with that since I'm using raggedy old eyes on a dusty, raggedy, old, uncalibrated 15" laptop.

My friend was just bragging about his score 4 over his GF a professional color correcting proofer who got a score of 8. I've been calibrating monitors by eye since color TVs 1st became available. Yeah, I'm damn old!

I also worked in the video industry extensively and with CGI. Anyway I got a score of 0. YAY! \(-.-)/

"Based on your information, below is how your score compares to those of others with similar demographic information.
Your score: 0
Gender: Male
Age range: Above 70
Best score for your gender and age range: 0
Highest score for your gender and age range: 1305
0 ( Perfect Color Acuity ) __________ 99 ( Low Color Acuity )"

Anyway, the highest score is 0 and the lowest is 99. Where do you score?
