But they have photos of what things look like for the colorblind, eg: green roses.Argh, I have a foto of a fotoshopped rose for my desktop... and it is GREEN!!! Although I do wonder how they would know. I mean the only way to test for colorblindness is to show them to colors and see if they can tell the difference. How do color-sighted people know whether the colorblind see the flowers are green or the petals as red? There you are missing the point. The colourblind see Green and Red as the SAME COLOR. That means it really doesn't matter to them whether something is red or is green, or if they see green as red or red as green. They see green and red BOTH as the same color color "gred". It's sort of like -- if you were wearing a yellow filter, then yellow and white would look like the same color to you, and they both look kind of yellow to you (but if you wear the filter for like 24 hours continuously, you will see them both as a sort of whitish yellow -- not yellow not white, but the same colour). Some colour blind people tell me that green and red both look kind of beigeish, but I have a hard time believing that, because most of my green-red colour blind friends could tell the difference between red and beige, and between green and beige. But they cannot tell the difference between green and red UNLESS the luminance is different. AEM7 |
